El Paso--Will's birthday

Will's birthday was pretty lame, I'll admit it.  The night before we had purchased an ice cream cake and ingredients to make tacos (his preferred dinner).  We bought a bunch of his favorite treats like goldfish and nerds and then bought some glow in the dark glasses and bunny ears.  It was a Sunday so we did church and then just hung out at the place we were renting.  We had brought a few puzzles so we set up a table and worked on that.  We had also brought the VR headset so the kids took turns playing games on that.  We went on a scenic drive and experienced the strongest wind any of us had ever been in before.  Mike had to hold Felicity the entire time because the wind was blowing her over!  She did not appreciate the wind at all.  It was cool to see El Paso on one said and Mexico on the other (Mexico is where the big red x is).  When we got home we ate dinner and cake and then played games.  I feel bad that his 16th birthday was so anti-climatic but he literally asked for nothing for his birthday (we gave him money) and since it was a Sunday and we were out of town, it was the best I could come up with.
