Happy Birthday, Daddy!

Michael's Birthday was yesterday, but we celebrated all weekend long! We started with a family day at the Children's Museum on Saturday. It was all a little advanced for Asher, but still a fun time exploring and getting messy. Sunday we had family over for BBQ, cake and presents. Monday evening Michael and I were able to go on a real date (thanks to Nana for keeping Asher) to Wolfgang Puck's Five-Sixty restaurant atop Reunion Tower. We look forward to concluding the birthday celebration with Aunt Michelle soon. (Michael's twin)

Poor guy! He was tasty though.

Oklahoma

Asher and I recently drove to Oklahoma to surprise my Dad for his birthday. My sister and her kids also made the trip and we had such a fun time visiting a local waterpark, celebrating Pappy's birthday and just being silly together! Watching his cousins have fun in the water was a turning point, and Asher is officially a fan of pools and splash parks.

Cheap Date

Half-price apple juice slushes from 2 to 4 pm at Sonic! Good times...

until it gets taken away to drive home.

Cheap excitement for the dog, too, when it gets dumped on the carpet next to a toy.
