Happy (late) Birthday Austin!

So Wednesday, October 5th was Austin's 26th birthday!

Can't believe we've been together for all of our birthdays since 17 & 18 :)

Family & Friends came to visit from Oklahoma!

Austin, his brother Alex, his mom Terri

Terri brought this for our garden, as well as some pretty flowers:

We had fun touring the Dallas World Aquarium, playing a sushi card game, and eating at Palio's Pizza and Blue Mesa Grill.

We got to feed the toucans!

Seahorses and Seadragons...

and THEY BROUGHT CUPPIES & JOE!!!!!!! Oh how I'd been missing it.

Ponce was sad to see them leave...

For Aust's gift I gave him a new calculator watch (he can't find his old one since we moved) and I made him homemade funfetti cupcakes (he always has to have funfetti for his birthday). I also made some 'birthday coupons' redeemable anytime he chooses!

These days when at home I'm doing a lot of this:

Qualitative Research is actually very enlightening... just a little tedious as well.

So we take naps on weekends to enjoy family time :)

How is your October?

I'm ready for Halloween :)
