"Birthday Party" pictures

It has been raining like crazy up here lately so we decided to take full advantage of a sunny, warm day. I mentioned to Dominic that I wanted to take some pictures of him and he insisted that the pictures were all for his "Birthday Party". I have NO CLUE where he is getting it from but everything revolves around his birthday lately. He looks through catalogs, iphone apps, books etc finding stuff for "my birthday party". It's so funny! I was hoping that the leaves were going to be a bit brighter but I've read that Northern Ohio is at it's peak the first week of October--guess we'll try again next week! :)
