A birthday, Santa, reindeer and a plum tree

My wonderful husband turns 30 today! Happy Birthday Nick! We actually celebrated yesterday since we will only see each other in passing today, as he comes home from work, and I leave to teach. Oliver helped Nick open his presents, and he especially enjoyed this one, from Binny:

We had a busy day yesterday, aside from celebrating Nick's birthday. In the morning we went to visit Santa and the reindeer at Swanson's Nursery. As you can see from the pictures, Oliver loved the reindeer (so much that we couldn't get him to turn away from them for a picture), but Santa, not so much.

 

Later, Nick picked up the plum tree that we pre-ordered from the city of Seattle. They had  a free tree program a few months ago, and we signed up to get a delicious fruit-bearing plum tree for our backyard.
