My Birthday and the Pumpkin Patch

I haven't found the time to update my blog recently as too many things have been going on.  Last week I turned another year older.  Despite being sick with a cold, I had a nice birthday.  Dave and Maya surprised me with a birthday balloon and present. 

In case my balloon looks strange to you, it is because Maya popped it soon after coming home!  It certainly was a nice gesture on their part and I loved it regardless :)

This past Saturday we visited a nearby pumpkin patch with some friends.  The weather was beautiful and the kids had a blast.  Maya enjoyed visiting the playful animals, playing the games, and of course running around!  We also managed to grab a few pumpkins to carve at our upcoming Halloween party.
