Matt's birthday

These weeks are just intense.  It's full - of really good stuff, and really hard stuff (we are definitely moving, need to be out of here by June 4th and have exactly zero leads on other potential housing options).

But in the midst of all that is swirling around us we've had some incredibly sweet days.  School is rolling along (mostly) beautifully and I'm loving this new little season.  And last week we celebrated Matt's birthday with a juice bar - it was really fun!  


First up? An afternoon trip to the market to prepare.


John Paul kept a close eye on the pineapple he purchased.  Yay for fruit sellers who do amazing work prepping fruit to be served!


Then we headed home to put the finishing touches on our gifts (almost everyone gave fruit - different but super super fun!).  Isaac was dead set on gifting this dart board.  Magnetic.  obviously.


After dinner we got out our juicer and set to work.  It was awesome.  New tradition? Maybe!


One more birthday in the books for my favorite man.  And one more celebration for our little family.  We do love birthdays and I'm not sure what's more special - all the talk and discussion in the days before, or the actual celebration itself.  We've got two more birthdays coming our way quickly (as the birthday boys are quick to remind us, daily!)
