Gus' Second Birthday Party

We celebrated Gus' second birthday today - a couple of days late, but weekends are much more conducive to getting folks together apparently ;). It was a little stressful getting ready for it, but a lot of fun. Thank you to everyone who came; to those who weren't able to make it: we missed you!

The party was held at West Fenwick Park, a nice mid-sized park a couple miles south of our apartment. I've posted pictures I took there on our Picasa account in case anyone is curious. Thanks go out to my mom for providing the cake and sandwiches fixings, and my lovely wife Rose for planning it all and not killing me when I went into overdrive trying to get ready for it this morning :)

Active Family!

This week I've been getting to hear a lot about the fun things my family does during the day - trips to the park, friends' houses, and the like. I am really glad that Rose is able to get the kids out so much these days, and I am sure it is as good for her as it is for them. I do wish I could be with them on some of these outings, though, and I'm really looking forward to when we can start going on weekend adventures again.
