<\/a>This weekend marked the 10th anniversary <\/span>of being a parent here in our house.\u00a0 TEN years…now we’re in the double digits!\u00a0 Our 2000 baby turned 10!!\u00a0\u00a0 How does one chose to celebrate their birthday when turning 10 (hmm…I really don’t remember many specifics about mine)??<\/p>\n

To kick off the weekend our big guy insisted on attending a camp out with area Cub Scout packs at a great big Camporall.\u00a0 For a boy, what could beat BB target shooting, archery, and whittling your own walking stick?\u00a0 Let’s not forget building a campfire and those traditional S’mores.\u00a0 By the time the S’mores were happening, I had returned to the comfort of home with the non-birthday boys.<\/p>\n

After lunch at our favorite Japanese restaurant, yesterday we took a trip in to DC.\u00a0 When we asked our birthday boy what he wanted to do for his big day, he knew exactly where he wanted to go…. to the National Garden<\/a>.\u00a0 Now not every 10 year old would chose to look at plants on their birthday, but our guy, he insisted<\/em> on looking through each section twice to be\u00a0sure to see EVERY plant there.\u00a0 It is truly one of his passions.\u00a0 Where he got the green thumb, I just don’t know.\u00a0 I ask him now for advice when it comes to anything green that comes in to our house!<\/p>\n

This outing gave me<\/em> the opportunity to pursue one of my passions, and that’s taking plenty of pictures.\u00a0 I’m putting a bunch right here.<\/p>\n
