Celebrating a Birthday: Off-road Style

Posted in Family, and Holidays

Today, we’re celebrating D’s birthday.  We’re starting off the day with monkey bread, and then we’re off to do a bit of off-road exploration in D’s truck.  We’ll be doing some hiking and some driving.  Munchkin is excited because she gets to show off some of her favorite places to Gramma and Grampa.  D is excited ’cause he gets to go wheeling on his birthday! A picnic lunch will be enjoyed somewhere along the way.  The cupcakes have been packed as we’ll be enjoying his birthday treats while out on the trails. Happy Birthday, Devildog!
