This year for our Summer vacation, we made the decision to stay home. A "Staycation". Well, at first I was kind of a little bummed... but the more I thought about it, the more I grew to LOVE the idea. We have a whole 10 days at home! To do... whatever! Our goal, which may or may not happen, is to get some housework done. But it sure is relaxing to do nothing... so we'll see how that works out.
Day #1 was spent today, Friday, as first and foremost- Ryan's 29th birthday! Yay! We all woke up and gave Daddy some cool presents. He ruined his flip flops during the rain storm camping so I got him some new ones. And he's been wanting a map of the United States to hang up somewhere, probably the garage, to pin all the places where we've been/visited. After that we did the not-so-fun part of the day and went to register the cars/motorcycle. Luckily it didn't take long, other than the fact we had to go downtown Atlanta to do it, which I just really dislike.
After Ben's nap, he and Ryan got in the kiddie pool to cool down and play for a little bit. My boys both love the water!
We cleaned up the house when they were done, and headed to dinner at Taco Mac with Nana & Poppy (man it's hard not to type Poopy when I spell that out) and our friends; The Terry's, the Kranendonk's, The Burkes, Clint and Geoff. It was so much fun to be with all of our loved ones.
We had Ryan's favorite cake and ice cream at our house afterward- yellow cake with chocolate icing and Cookies n' Cream ice cream. This was the first year in a while we've been in town for his birthday so it was fun to have a celebration ON his birthday with all our peeps!.
