Eva turned 1 year old this afternoon at 12:04pm. The year that was flew by so incredibly quick that our heads are spinning. I cannot believe that this beautiful girl was once so very small. Yes, she is still small but each day she grows more into her own. Her own personality, her own sense of self and her own sense of humor (she is a little clown sometimes). I am so glad that I photographed her ‘almost’ every day for her 1st year. Just being able to look back over how much she has changed in that short period of time is amazing.
We celebrated with a trip to Red Robin for dinner and the staff sang Eva a birthday song and gave her a sundae. Then we came home and Tara and Erik came over for cupcakes. We had a fun time watching Eva as she discovered the joy that is a chocolate frosted cupcake. I’ve posted some of my favorite photos from today on Flickr. You can see them starting with this one.
Oh and I keep working on my Fry Sauce recipe. This time I mixed the ketchup and mayo with pickle juice and Red Robin seasoning. DELICIOUS!! Thanks to Steve for the pickle juice idea.
Eva in the computer chair doing her best Trump impression (she has better hair.) In her Trump mode she should be firing me as blogger for The BenSpark. I did some work on my blogs today. Some things didn’t go so well.
I decided to upgrade my hosting on GoDaddy. I was already paying for Economy hosting so the cheapest route for me was to go Deluxe. I was able to then set up hosting for Allison’s blog Sparky’s View, I was also able to change Google is Not God. I screwed up The Wired Kayaker and need to talk with someone at GoDaddy because of the mistakes I made when attempting to get that blog hosted. I also have to get Read To Me, Dad set up back in my hands. Lots of work ahead but that is what I need to do to get on the right track to becoming a better blogger. I also registered a new domain today. I got an idea for a new blog while at IZEAFest and I think this one is going to be very fun and informative. Check back as I work on it and plan to unveil it at a later date.
Yesterday I received an Edge Tech Corp 7″ Photo Frame. I’ll be setting that up at work and making a video of how well it works soon. And next month I’m holding a contest to give one away. I’m announcing that early and putting up a link to Edge Tech Corp on all of my blogs to keep people excited about the upcoming contest.
