Nate had a birthday!

I know this picture should go after the cake,
 but the face was just too good not to be first. :)

Mama and Papa bought him a birthday cake...we didn't have any 
candles, but believe it or not, the matches stayed lit long enough to work out.
 (Match sticks here are coated in wax, so they burn a really long time.) 

Nate had presents that had been mailed, that had been stowed in our luggage,
 and that had been made by his siblings. All put together, he made out quite handily.

Our neighbor drove with us to the monkey reserve just outside of town...
we didn't have time to actually go through it, but we did get to see monkeys that
 weren't on "their" side of the reserve. These were checking to see if the beverage
 truck had accidentally left any open coke bottles for them. :)

For supper we made pizza...Nate doesn't know that is a 2...
but Glory had I had fun fixing it anyway. :)
