Birthdays....

Seth is now officially in the double digits!! I still can't believe I have a ten year old. Just look at how tall he is. He stands almost a head taller than most of his friends! He isn't far behind me in height now either. We can even wear the same size shoe!!! Seems this is all just going by too fast.....He had a great birthday! The older that he gets the more low-key it is. This year he just wanted to go to Gatti-town with some friends. It is an all you can eat pizza buffet with an arcade, rides and other games. They did their own thing, only stopping to find me when they were out of money on their cards. He got everything he wanted....guitar hero, new football, Roller Coaster Tycoon, and of course money. I am amazed at how good he is with his money. He is my little saver.

My Birthday was just a week after Seth's. I was lucky enough to have family from Missouri here to celebrate with! Ryan's Grandma Smith, Aunt Sandy and Uncle Bill came bearing gifts. We had a great night visiting and Emily spoiled us with a great Kabob dinner and made my favorite cake - a spice cake! We even had time to play dominoes. Grandma Smith stayed in Texas for the week while Sandy and Bill headed down to San Antonio. We had a great time visiting with her. We were able to try out some fun new restaurants. Erin warmed up really quick and loved to show off for her Great-Grandma.
