A Happy Day

Thursday was Tate's 6th birthday!  He's so grown up. It makes me kind of sad sometimes, how grown up he is.  He won't let me kiss him or snuggle him very much anymore. He's much too old for that.  He loves Legos and to play outside with his best buddy, Ethan.  He's still my "Baby Tate", though. He was Baby Tate for 5 years before the newest little munch came along, and as far as I can see, he shall remain so.
On this already joyous day of celebrating the life of one of my favorite people , we had other jolly plans. Our family is being featured in the March issue of the Waxahachie Now magazine, and that day the editor and photographer came to interview us and take pictures for the article. Dad said he wants to hire that photographer for our next Christmas picture because she's so fast. As you can imagine, taking a family portrait of 11 people has a pretty high stress potential if we don't have an efficient photographer :). 

The time with the magazine ladies took less time than we expected.  So we were just sitting in our house all dressed up.  What's a family to do in a time like this?  How about go out to eat?!?!  That's just what we did. It's kind of a rare luxury to go out ALL TOGETHER, so we were quite excited. We went to a brand new Chinese buffet down the road, and it was soooo good. Beautiful and delicious food, and charming companions.  How rich are we to have each other?
