Last week: Gabriel Tariku turned two!

This was his first bday celebration.
So – ripping wrapping paper: check!

Great presents: check!
(The boy loves shoes, what can I say?)

But really, it always comes down to the most important birthday features:
cake and candles and song.

And Chocolate!
And…lest we forget, he’s two…

The classic two year old boy bday present: Kidsize Basketball!
After that, well, there was not much more to say.

Except, of course,
“Shoot!”
