Last weekend, my good friend Frank decided to have a little BBQ party for his wife (and our friend) Margo. It was a great time. Skylar had fun, swam in the pool, and “chatted” with all the other babies around. All this while most of the guys played some Kan Jam.

My best buddy, Jon, turned thirty years old at the end of January and his parents (my second parents, as I’ve always referred to them) decided to throw him a great surprise party. He was definitely surprised when he walked through the door and noticed a house packed with friends and family. We were all happy to be there and had a fantastic time.

Happy 30th Birthday, Jon!!

Madison had a great time celebrating her fifth birthday at The Jumping Jungle! She and her friends got to bounce, jump, and play for an hour before heading into a party room to have some delicious pizza. She was thrilled! It was a fun day for one of the most fun little girls I know! Happy Birthday, Madison!

Venue: The Jumping Jungle in East Brunswick, NJ

Denise and I decided to head out to the Brunswick Grove to ring in my sister Michelle’s birthday night. The music was loud. The place was packed. And the drinks were flowing! It was a good time. Most of these were shot at around 12,800 ISO on the Canon 5D Mark II. Add a little black and white touch and all that noise turns to sweet, sweet grain. Love it! Happy Birthday, Meesh!

Skylar had a great time at her first birthday party last weekend! Especially with Marty & Linda. They’re the parents of my long-time best friend and were practically my second parents when I was growing up.

It’s pretty amazing to see them holding my little Wiggle Bear!

Venue: The Cambridge Inn in Spotswood, NJ

I just wanted to say a big, huge Happy Birthday to my mom! Here are a few shots I took of her during my mother-in-law’s surprise 60th birthday party this past weekend. Two with baby Skylar and one with my pops.

Love you, Mom! Happy Birthday!!
