Re-posting because Bridget just made up another batch and it’s so tasty! There’s something about eating a meal that was cooked inside a pumpkin. The kids were fascinated by it.

It was my beautiful wife’s birthday this week and as our family tradition goes, we celebrate “birthday week”. With birthday week coming to a close, we wanted to share the highlight of the week which was a surprise birthday party we threw for Bridget at our place which included many dear friends and family, GT South’s BBQ, a 20 foot bright orange sky dancer and much more. Check out photos from the evening below (and don’t miss the balloon drop video below, which was the pinnacle of the night!) Happy Birthday honey!

Yesterday we took advantage of some free state fair tickets from the local newspaper and spent the day at the fair. Highlights from the day included: looking at fish in the DNR building, seeing the full range of animals from the farm, the little hands on the farm activities, family elephant ride, and all the staple fair food treats. Good times!
