HAPPY BIRTHDAY and More

On October 11th it was Shawn's 37th Birthday, damn he is old. I am only kidding!! On October 18th it was Maddy's 9th Birthday! Ok now I feel old!! We have, I guess you can kinda call it a tradition, for any special occasion we always go to Thunder Valley for Dinner. I know what you are thinking, it's not to gamble! Honestly, it's the DESSERT bar at the buffet. That is the most important part of dinner!

On Maddy's actual Birthday we hung out at home. My Mom and Dad and one of Maddy's best friends, Lidia came over. We had Tacos (Maddy's pick) and Stuffed Quail ( Shawn's pick). Shawn's parents were there too! Maddy got Guitar Hero for her Birthday and holy cow is it a ton of FUN!! The kids also rode their quads.

Yesterday we went to Bishop's Pumpkin Patch with the school, K - 2nd grade gets to go. We had a lot of fun! And of course I had to get CRINKLE COOKIES YUMMY!!! Yep they are already gone too!!

It was also my Grandma's Birthday. She turned 84. I have always been blessed having my Grams around. She cooks the best Portuguese Soup EVER and her Onions holy yummy!! I can't share the recipes cuz they are "in the family" but trust me they are awesome!!

Here are the rest of the Birthdays... Holly (we aren't saying how old, she is older then me! ok only by 2 months but still!); Tiffany (she gets married in a month!!!); and Aaron (he shares the day with Maddy). SO Happy Birthday to you!!!
