Last weekend, I met up with the “M” family at Pullen Park to celebrate Brooks’ first birthday. It’s hard to believe that it’s already been a year. In case you missed it, here’s a preview of his newborn session: HERE. For his first birthday, we decided to go with something a little different for me…balloons. LOTS of BALLOONS!
