Another year, Another adventure



As many of you know we love to take the boys on birthday adventures.. Each year, with the exception of 1 or 2 less than mediocre years, we have taken them somewhere special to make some memories. It is my humble opinion that they will not remember the LEGO set or the Wii game they received for their birthday but they will likely remember their 5th birthday when they went to Sea World with their aunt and uncle. Or, perhaps their 7th birthday when they went horseback riding in Big Sky and toured Yellowstone National Park with their Montana/Wyoming family. Or their 3rd birthday when they got to hug Sir Topham Hat and meet Thomas the Train... And, just maybe their 6th birthday they spent at Hogwarts.

And my personal favorite, their first birthday in Maui...Okay maybe they wont remember that one.

This year, for their 8th birthday adventure, they spent the day at a giant traveling LEGO festival in Austin.  Here is a little recap of the day...



Their actual birthday is this Sunday.  And, on top of the annual adventure they have insisted on a birthday party.. While I am not much of a party planner, we will host about a dozen of their closest friends here at our house in a couple weeks for a backyard movie night.

Stay tuned for updates on that soiree!
