Birthday travels

Yesterday he turns one. We didn't have a party, but we were visiting a friend and she had some extra party hats. James and I are both sick (sore throats and fevers). I thought about making a cake for him today, but if his throat feels like mine he doesn't want cake. His brothers probably want cake though...

We travelled to Annapolis this weekend to visit our dear friend Michelle. It was my first time going to the DC area in almost three years!!! I can't believe it has been that long. We didn't do anything "exciting". We visited some fun playgrounds (honestly, the boys are so excited about free play grounds and looking at boats in the Annapolis harbor, they don't need any paid for activities - we thought about going to a fall festival, but it was $12 a person and I wasn't feeling too hot, plus it was HOT outside). 

When the wind blew it wasn't too bad outside. The sky was gorgeous. There was a festival going on downtown and the boys got free fire truck hats and library books (yay!). We had a picnic in the park and went to Trader Joe's for a few months supply of Sesame sticks (I'm addicted). 

The boys loved crossing bridges and seeing boats. They bring such joy to life - they are excited about the smallest things. It reminds me to be grateful. 

So pretty. 

Hope your weekend was grand.
