I don’t remember ever having month-long festivals in honor of my birthday, but that seems to be the case here. After all the other stuff we did for his birthday, we took him on an overnight vacation.
Instead of going somewhere distant, Kath got us a room at the Ramada in North Syracuse ’cause – let’s face it – kids don’t care if they’re 8 miles or 8 time zones away from home. As long as there is a room with two beds and HUGE pillows, an indoor pool / hot tub, and a breakfast buffet, they’ll be pretty stoked. And they were.
After checking in Thursday afternoon and swimming for a while, we went to Tully’s restaurant for supper. We had never been there, and it was tons of fun. The food was good, and we dropped a few bucks some video games and air hockey before all was said and done.
On Friday morning we hit the breakfast buffet and headed home.
I hereby declare this the last event in honor of Thomas’ 2009 birthday.
