Birthday Bouldering at Badger Creek with My Baby


Hi!

My sweet baby boy (Evan) turned 26. The MacDonald family holiday season of Being The Same Age For 3 Months (Aug - Nov) begins again! For the holiday we both have shirts that say 26 (that we made) and we plan to wear them, A LOT. If anyone can think of other festive things we can do to celebrate a random made-up holiday season, we're game, we want to make this legit. What is a holiday but something someone once made up? (apart from the sacred holidays) We can have our own holiday too!

To surprise Evan and make the day special for him we went bouldering when our friend Joel got off work at 5. The sun played games with the scenery and everything turned different shades of late summer beautiful. We climbed and played and laughed with the tetons right behind us.

I'd really like to spend time editing pictures to make our adventure look as grandiose as it did in person but lately my 'free' time has been spent doing paperwork for my job. Besides I'd prefer being out there it in person - climbing or hiking or whatever - over editing my mediocre pictures of something so beautiful. Some pictures from Evan's birthday are here.



Such a beautiful view... for taking a leak


Good friend Joel Nielson had been there before and went with us.


waking up in the morning. Then I made Evan crepes.

Sounds like a fun trip. Nina's adorable when she first wakes up. Happy Birthday, Evan.
 
happy birthday evan! we could have the same holiday, but it would last longer. i think alma would like to celebrate the 'my wife's older than me' holiday more :) love you bangs! mine are almost grown out to where i want them, haha. miss you guys.
 
I think you should also celebrate your three month holiday with a progressive dinner with friends.
 
Glad you finally got a sleeping picture of Evan... seems like he's posted a few of you. :) Haha.

Looks like a fun adventure! I can't wait to see you guys again and go climbing together.
