Last week I celebrated my birthday. Ben painted me a beautiful abstract and took some pictures of the first half of our day together. Kate figured out how to use the camera and took some too.
It was insanely hot that day. My mom, the kids and I went for a walk in the neighborhood I grew up in and played at the park. Kate and I took a nice long nap at my parents (air conditioned) house. In the afternoon, my dad and I took Ben and Kate to the spray park in attempts to beat the heat. Ben, who hated the spray park last year, liked it. Kate, whom I thought would love it, didn't. We ended the evening at one of my favorite restaurants. Maybe getting older isn't so bad after all...
