Nate's 35th birthday


Wow! Nate's 35!

Nate was bogged down working during the day, and the girls were excitedly creating gifts for him, asking when Daddy is going to celebrate. Finally, I thought enough is enough and decided I'd force Nate out of his office. I told the girls we would secretly fill water balloons and hide them outside. Then at my cue, I'd lead Daddy to the side yard and the girls and their friends can get him. They didn't know, however, that I also had a secret for Nate, telling him where his secret stash of water balloons are.




It ended up being all-out war-- one adult against 6 kids, and that adult wasn't playing nice!! It was one man for himself out there! Everyone had a great time. Then we finished it up with a slip n' slide. I think Nate (and the girls) had a great, wet time.




The girls finally got advantage of Nate, attacking him from behind.






Nate the birthday boy

The girls made bags full of gifts for their daddy -- from their own treasures to their own creations to photos to pictures to love notes. It was all very sweet.

I got him a hammock. Aaahhhhh. We've all been loving it.


We went out to eat at our favorite restaurant, Luibueno's. with our friend Michael who is living with us. The next day we had a delicious dinner at Nate's mom's house and enjoyed her chocolate cake which she makes for every birthday.
