Double Digit Doritos Nachos Locos & Big Nate

Holy wowzers, Rex is TEN!!!!
 
One of the things we like to do as a birthday tradition is let our kids choose what we will eat for dinner on their b-day. Rex had been telling me for weeks that he wanted to have Taco Bell. They have  a new taco that has a Doritos flavored shell. He had thought of little else. I wasn't stoked to haul the family to the nearest Taco Bell for the dinner hour, so we had a compromise. I surprised Rex by picking him up from school for lunch, and he and I went to Taco Bell on our own. He was in heaven!
 
 
That night, we had the usual opening of gifts and cake. It was a simple family affair.  
 
 
Both of Rex's grandparents sent him gift cards for his double digit day. He ordered a slew of Big Nate books from Amazon thanks to G&G Ross.

 
And he got a cool mini-basketball for the tramp and, you got it, another Big Nate book from Target, courtesy of G&G Martin.
Happy Birthday, Rex!
