My mom and grandpa came down over the weekend to help me celebrate my birthday! It was so nice to have them here! I got home on Friday to some beautiful flowers.
We also watched a gorgeous sunset.
Saturday morning we headed out to Schnepf Farms and had the best time! Matt started tweeting at the owner who came over and talked with us for a while. She and all the other employees were so sweet!
We went to go take a look at some of the animals
Matt was clearly having a great time!
We also got to meet Buster the Holstein/Longhorn mix, and he was ginormous!
Matt then became the goat whisperer in the petting zoo.
One of the ladies that was working let us bounce on the kangaroo jumper, and it might have been my favorite part of the day!
It kind of looked like a blob but bounced like a trampoline. It was seriously so fun!!
Then we walked over to the u-pick garden
We picked an assortment of fresh lettuce and lavender.
We headed to the general store and picked up some other goodies. There were some little boys playing hockey on the ice rink. The owner said some weekends some of the big guys come to play so we may be back to watch some more fun!
Then we headed over to the Olive Mill to take a look around and buy some more fun stuff!
While we were in Queen Creek, we also made a stop at The Pork Shop to pick up some meat for later.
Throughout the day, Matt showered me with gifts! Most of them were stuff we bought the week before, but it was kind of fun to open them up again! ;)
We put out our fresh lavender. One of the workers told us how to make lavender lemonade so when it dries out, I might give that a chance.
We made dinner using all of our fresh ingredients we bought earlier that day. It was seriously so good! Matt made the best pork loin I think I've ever had!
My mom and I also went to go get my favorite gelato. While we were there we found a cake shop to get some cake pops that were also delicious!!
We had such a fun time celebrating with many family members.
Sunday after church we headed to brunch at The Perch. It was a beautiful morning!
Sunday evening we went to a birthday party for one of my old clients. They knew how to throw a party!!
The food was delicious, and it looked like all of the kids had a blast!
They also gave us some major party favors!
It was a pretty fun way to end the weekend. We then ran down to get some Bahama Bucks because you can't have some of your favorite people down for the weekend and not go to one of your favorite places!
So ends my birthday celebration and now we are back to real life for a few days. Nolan will be here starting this weekend so look for more fun to come!
