I Can See Clearly Now
On Friday night I was e-mailing back and forth with a friend of mine from college who serves as the volunteer IT service provider for the school I’m working to start. Our website is experiencing a glitch, and she was helping me sort it out. We finally realized I needed more storage area on the server. Rather than purchase more, I was asking her if there was anything we could delete. The thing taking up the most space was my old wedding website (not 2000 Dollar Wedding, but our actual site for guests).

Tate’s First Birthday Party
Tate is almost one. Wow!
It’s time to start party planning. I’m excited to celebrate this little guy.
So far we’ve kept all of Henry’s birthday parties simple with a little celebration at home. I think that’s the route we’ll go again.

Activities: Tate loves being outside, so I do think an evening/dinner party would be fun.
- Baby pool
- Bubbles
- Hose + dirt = mud
