Son's birthday celebration
Back from my son's birthday weekend- place to go I believe was planted by my husband. My son will be 6 on March 13th. So where did we go and what did we do?
My son is a football fan to the extreme. The Steeler's are his hometown favorite, but he also has an open enough mind to appreciate talent from other divisions. He will talk your ear off about football given the chance.
So off we went last night to spend the night in a hotel, because he only had 2 requests for his birthday- to go swimming and to go to the Football Hall of Fame. Our son has never had the extreme parties his sister has had, so he was due.
The BIG surprise of the evening was my husband's friend coming to dinner- well, maybe in the kids eyes it is more of what he drove than him actually participating in dinner ....he showed up in a Cadillac Escalade LIMOSENE.....awesome delight to my children! My daughter looked a little too comfortable in her surroundings, so we had the 'talk' about study hard, work at something you love, and someday you will be able to AFFORD this same treat for your children....( I can see her wanting to hit us up in September for the same treat...)
So the evening ended with MORE swimming, beer for the parents, etc.....Morning started the same way ( sans beer drinking) and then off to the Hall of Fame. If you are ever interested in football, this is the place to be. I had wanted to be dropped off to shop instead of suffering through the place, and even I, enjoyed the experience. Highly recommended. Print the coupon off the internet....save $1.50 each on admission.( I think the website is football hall of fame or something similar.)
The son was extremely excited the entire time, the daughter hung with them, and threw the ball with great accuracy. I was busy taking pictures and looking at Packer memorabilia......
easy drive home because I had the MP3 player and the kids fell asleep almost instantly, after a nutritious lunch at McDonald's. Don't forget the shamrock shake!
That's all for now,
warm regards from the Moon.
