Happy 55th Birthday, Dad!
Last night was an absolute blast. Good work, mom!
Dad was completely surprised by all the friends and family members that came out to Cafe Latte to surprise him on his birthday. And he loved his "55" gifts - 55 prunes, 55 suckers, a list of the top 55 movies from 1956-2011 along with the 55 accompanying candies, 55 straws, 55 kisses from Jack...such creative ideas!
Thanks for making the night so special, everyone and so great seeing you all :)
If only Ben, Luke and Lily could have been there - then the evening would have truly been complete...
Looking forward to having the (almost) whole family together in a little more than 2 weeks and then the whole fam together in just under a month!

Weekends to Remember
The last three weekends have been absolutely amazing :)
The first weekend Ben surprised us by coming home from school. Seeing as my mom was out of town, the weekend was spent eating delicious food and watching football in our comfies (dad included).
The following weekend was filled with scarecrow making (our scarecrow, Eek the Elephant, placed third in the annual scarecrow contest at the Minnesota Zoo!), running Twin Cities 10k with Mike (we finished in less than an hour! I was so proud of Mike - it was the furthest he had ever run and he did absolutely amazing!), Oktoberfest at the Farm, and a football-filled, Marathon-cheering-on sunny Sunday.
Last weekend included Ben again (I am liking the fact that he has a car at school - it is so nice seeing him! We miss him so much...now if only Luke and Lily could figure out how to apparate...), manicures and pedicures (plus much giggling on Jack's end - turns out he loved the women at the nail salon!), more football and a wonderful birthday dinner with friends.
I love fall... :)
