Tates Birthday

Tate forgot it was his birthday so he was surprised to wake up and find balloons and presents waiting for him. He got to have Ice cream for breakfast and then be THE BOSS all day!

He liked this balloon so much he wanted to make out with it!

He chose to go to the Aquarium first

And then he decided to go to Kangaroo Zoo which we had completely to ourselves.





It was a really fun day. Tates favorite part was getting to be the boss which covered getting to decide what we listened to in the car to what we had for dinner. He especially liked getting to decide if Ty was good enough to get a treat too at the aquarium. (I've never seen Ty be so nice to tate). I cant believe he is Five now and will be going to school next year! He had added so much to out family.

D.C. trip

Washington D.C.

For our 10 year anniversary we went to D.C. for a week. I used to live there and missed it and clay had never been so off we went! We did alot of sight seeing and just hanging out. I think we saw 4 or 5 movies because we never get to when we are home, and we ate ALOT of delicious food. It was so nice to just have time together and relax after the crazy summer we have had. (I still need to do a blog post about that)
