dinosaur park

tyler was unable to see tanner on his birthday because of his busy work schedule that month.  so the next time tyler had a day off, we spent the day continuing tanner's celebration at the dinosaur park as a family.

 

i can't tell you how wonderful it is to actually see and talk to my husband during a busy rotation.  both the kids and i were enjoying every moment.

 

when we first arrived, tanner was running around with a giddy expression on his face. this was the perfect place to celebrate his birthday.

there were halloween decorations set up throughout the park.

later that evening we met up with grandma and grandpa hedin to eat a celebratory dinner at brick oven.  we chose this place because tanner loves pizza and breaksticks and also because they are very generous with free meals for birthday kids.
