Today is my son's 11th birthday! It's hard to believe 11 years ago today Greg and I were awaiting our first baby's arrival. At this very moment, I am reminiscing that special day, while Noah is getting fitted for his very own hunting bow with his dad...Happy birthday, buddy! We will celebrate as a family tomorrow evening with dinner and a movie...Buffalo Wild Wings and RIO!
