Nate is one year older - and I guess, wiser too. Nate's requests were simple this year. Burgers on the grill and root beer floats for dessert. Seriously?!?! We chose to celebrate on Saturday and I had grandiose ideas of what would be fun to do. Afterall, the news had been promising a wonderful weekend with the warmest days of the year. It was finally going to be warm and sunny! We were going to go on a walk to get doughnuts in the morning and eat them at the park so Preston could play. Then, we would go on a hike or geocaching with a picnic lunch. After naptime we would go swimming or to one of the many splash parks in our area.
However, when we woke up on Saturday is was cold and super windy. We managed our walk to get doughnuts but came straight home deciding even the walk almost wasn't worth it in the cold. Instead, we ran some errands. The afternoon proved to be a little sunnier but still breezy and cool We did go geocaching, which is always fun.
We don't go geocaching enough anymore. It seriously is the best way to spend time together and get outside. We found 3 of 5 attempted caches all within walking distance of our home. We're a little rusty on our searching skills I guess. I can't stop thinking about the one that eluded us the longest. We searched for probably 20 minutes. Maybe we'll go search again tonight! The cache is at a baseball field. We had fun just playing around the area though.

| He was so proud. His smug smile said it all. |
