yesterday was tyler's birthday and we managed to fill it to the brim with things to do. we did a family birthday brunch and gift opening in the morning, where we stuffed our bellies full of crepes, sausages, bacon, gravy, toast and eggs. then tyler spent the afternoon with aaron and pap at performance bicycle and games stop. he didn't even have to spend his gift card at game stop, because he traded in a lot of his old games in exchange for a new one.
birthday evening was his slumber party. there was a lot of water gun action, some water balloon launching, and all around craziness. the boys camped out in the backyard, and they reported this morning that they probably went to bed around 5 a.m. (yikes!). we found them this morning passed out in the tent, yard haphazardly-talk about party animals empty beverage cans and bottles strewn in the! after last night though, i have come to the realization that no matter how old you are, farts and making fart jokes always seem to be funny.

after completing some last minute packing, tyler just left this afternoon for his summer stint in seattle. 7 weeks usually go by quickly, but it's always a transition to have him gone for that long. when he comes back, it will be orientation time for middle school. i'm still in disbelief, and i don't think i've fully processed that idea yet.
