No joke, we set our alarms for 5am so we could leave at 5:30 and get to the White Tank Regional Park at open 6 so we could hike before it got hot. It was still hot (and humid) but better hiking at 6 than noon for sure!
Again, everything's more fun with a dog!
After the hike and showers, we had a bit of low-key before Sean's birthday party. He didn't ask for much: 2 friends, pizza, and swimming. (oh, and cash for presents because he's saving up for something)
(each of those balloons has a $5 bill in it)
This was accordion-folded into a tissue box.
This was rolled up inside a tin can. I think the kid got well over $100 this birthday!
From Grandma Moore.
Silly face!
And the way cool CTR (Choose the Right) ring from Grandma Faulkner.
Onto the cake! This is what he wanted, two-layer white cake, blue frosting, simple simple.
And that's another birthday in the bag and the end of Day Two! :)

that hike looks like it offers some beautiful views! i think i will have to head out there - maybe this fall when it cools down a bit. :-)
what clever gifter packed five-dollar bills in a tissue box?! i may have to steal that idea for one of my nephews - they would love it!
Love the White Tanks and miss them. We had some great times and adventures up there. Great photos!
Oh my goodness, Sean hit the motherlode! I loved all the different ways he got his money. I'll have to do that with my boys.
