So it is tradition in Brasil that on your baby's first birthday you throw a huge party. You invite all your friends and have a ton of food and sweets, and a lot of people rent out reception centers that specialze just in this first birthdays, and others, but mostly first birthdays. We were going to do one for Drake here in the States when he turned one, but I was expecting Gavin any day and wasn't up for all the work, or knew if I would be there for it. So when we went to Brasil, this year Tereza, (ze's mom) insisted that we have one, and I am so glad we did. It was so much fun and a great memory and cultural tradition for our kids. I am grateful to her for giving it to them, because now I see how great it really is. It will definately be our tradition from now on.
