Even though the boys were born in Seattle, they had yet to go up the Space Needle. We decided to fix that this time around. Playing tourist in our own hometown is always fun! The square blue and peach colored square building is an apartment where David and I used to live…

Our annual road trip begins! This year, we brought the puppies. They did a great job with the long hauls. Quick rest stop while heading north… Road trips are exhausting! First stop.

I was given the incredible opportunity to witness by friend, Crystal, give birth to their second child, while she was at home, in a tub, without drugs. Precious, beautiful, intense, scary, wonderful, amazing. These don’t even scratch the surface. Eric, praying over Crystal. The death grip 🙂 Welcome baby Aria!

David and the boys collaborated to make me a lovely breakfast in bed. I spent the day watching my favorite shows. It was lovely. ‘R’ actually took it upon himself to stuff the raspberries with blueberries!

12!! What?! 12!!! The day started with our tradition of the birthday boy eating whatever he wants for breakfast. ‘R’s choice this year… Little Caesar’s Bacon Wrapped Pepperoni Pizza and Shirley Temple. Ugh. He was very happy 🙂 We went to Studio Movie Grill for lunch and saw Batman v. Superman, then cupcakes for dessert!
