Happy 1st Birthday | The Chosen ONE!

And just like that, a year has come and gone and Lincoln is ONE! Of course we had to do a Harry Potter themed cake smash photoshoot for our little guy. I’m not too bummed that we were not able to have a proper birthday party for him because we just moved to Wyoming a few months ago, so we don’t really know anybody yet. (Turns out, it’s sort of tough to make new friends in a new town in the middle of a pandemic. Who’da thunk it?) I baked Link the classic birthday cake from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, made a crafty “The Chosen ONE” banner, stuck him in an adorable Gryffindor onesie, and gifted him his first wand. He refused to wear his glasses, but they made a nice background prop along with Austin’s firebolt. I wrapped all his gifts in craft paper and jute, laid down a white sheet, and voilà—the perfect magical photo setting!
