Nathan's Doljabi Raffle

The baby of our family is turning 1 this Friday! It's so bittersweet...I wish I had the power to freeze time.

His cousin Mia, who's 6 weeks older, had her dol (a baby's 1st birthday) at the end of September. The Korean doljabi raffle was a big hit at Mia's dol so I reused the pink jars to make Nathan's dojabi raffle.

 

Mustache Mug Party Favours

What is more fun than a mustache mug?!
 
I love candy bars but I feel like we need to switch it up. I'm pretty sure we've had candy bar favours for the past 6-12 parties. Change is good, no? 

So for my nephew's upcoming 1 year little man mustache party, I came up with a different idea for favours. 

His party will be right after Halloween so kids (and parents) will be candied out- another reason why I love this idea!

Mia's 1!

So as I mentioned, my little niece turned 1 a couple weeks ago!

Here are some decor pics that our friend's daughter shot. At 16 years old, she's a budding photographer! 

Today I turn 31... say what??

Since I've been in school for the past 4 years it feels like time has stopped. That might be because I'm surrounded by a bunch of young'uns. In my class of 19 guys and gals, I'm the 3rd oldest. Is there something wrong when my closest classmates are a decade younger than me? But to even it out I also have a close classmate that's a decade older than me.

When I first started this program I remember thinking, "Wow, I'm going to graduate this program when I'm 31!" That sounded so old back then... but alas, here I am and... I don't feel a day older. I think my nephews keep me young. I'm pretty sure they think I'm their age.

It's hard to explain. I don't "feel" older but I know that I definitely am.

This upcoming year will be an interesting year...some transitions will be happening and I have no idea how it's all going to play out.
