Fun at the Baldersons'

Tate had a great time with Kent and Grandpa!

Tate loves Cathy and Steve's pet snake! :)

We spent Sunday evening at the Baldersons' and had a great time just hanging out with them and with Grandpa and Kent. We had homemade ice cream and sheet cake...yummy! Tate was a hoot and jabbered and smiled the entire time.
