Cade's Birthday Weekend

Cade turns 10 on Tuesday, October 6th. This weekend we celebrated his big day with two gatherings. On Saturday afternoon Cade invited 4 buddies to join us on a trip to Carolyn's Pumpkin Patch and the Liberty Corn Maze. It was a bit cool out, but it was truly a beautiful fall afternoon and evening. We let the boys go on their own at the pumpkin patch while Kim, Cali, and I hung out. The boys loved it and Cali loved it. Since we were with Cali the whole time we took a whole lot of pics of little Liu! After the pumpkin patch we grabbed a bite of pizza and then went back to the corn maze. The boys ventured into the maze in the dark. They each had a flashlight and once again, had a blast. We did not get home until almost 11:00pm! The boys still wanted to do presents and cake even though it was so late. They still had a ton of energy. They did settle down pretty quickly though. Naturally we are all a bit tired today!

Today we celebrated Cade's birthday with a family gathering here at the house. I cooked brats and burgers on the grill and Kim made a scrumptious angel food cake with cherry icing! It was a pretty low key afternoon. It was nice that everyone was able to make it over to help wish Cade a happy 10th b-day. Cade is at soccer practice right now. He should be tuckered out tonight. We will do another post on his actual birthday...........check back soon!
