I can't believe that our big kid is now 7 years old. Elizabeth was able to take the day off with the kids today. Just for fun we rented a hotel room last night at the Hilton Garden Inn, so we were all able to go swimming in their pool yesterday evening, and Elizabeth and the boys swam some more there today. Nolan's buddy Nico was able to stop by and go swimming as well, which was fun.
Nolan got a skateboard and a scooter for his birthday, along with some knee & elbow pads for safety. He was a little frustrated with them today, and it will take some practice to get better at using them.
The most memorable thing about today was the fact that right after Nolan blew out his birthday candles on his cake, the tornado siren went off! We grabbed the cake and headed to the basement, where our whole family ate birthday cake while hiding from a potential tornado! It was quite the peculiar moment. Anyways, the tornado warning for Ames only lasted about 15 minutes, and we were safe.
