Birthday Weekend

Kory and I had a great day celebrating his 30th birthday. My mom watched the kids, so we had the whole afternoon and evening to spend together. We played some golf and then went to dinner and a movie...it was very nice. Such simple plans become the biggest treats after children enter the picture:) The weather was perfect for golfing, and I even played pretty decent after not playing for nearly 2 years! There's nothing like hitting a really good shot to bring back your passion for the game.

We saw Ocean's 13, which was pretty entertaining. I mean, you pretty much know what you're going to get going in, but it's still worth it. You can't help but think how much fun they must have making these movies...a bunch of friends hanging out in Vegas...doing a fluff movie...getting paid millions of dollars:) I could do that...but, alas, I don't look like George Clooney or Brad Pitt...which is good, I guess, since I am a girl.

On Sunday we drove over to the Mall of America to just hang out for a little bit. I went on a few rides with Knox, which was fun. He went on his first roller coaster...just the kiddie one, but he did get a little scared. I felt kind of bad, but I think he liked it anyway. Who would of thought the kiddie roller coaster would whip you around those corners like that!? Unfortunately, I didn't bring my camera to the mall, but I did get some shots of Knox last week that I wanted to share. Hopefully, Fussypants (Lizzie) will be more cooperative soon so I can get some shots of her.
