Fall Break...

Unfortunately our Fall Break started a day early, with Alex and I both staying home from school sick! We didn't do anything eventful, lots of laying around trying to feel better. We did have our weekly Friday date night. Alex chose...McDonald's and a Friends dvd:

(I think Gunner was hoping for a fry or at least to lick Alex's fingers!)
It was a fun date night, I wish I had felt better, but at least Alex was almost 100%.

MoA fun...

Our only Hooters in the area is at Mall of America, but they have THE best wings around, so we made a special trip up there for lunch. We had fun walking off our lunch, doing some window shopping.
At the Vans store, Alex made us laugh with his Blues Brothers look (he had NO clue what we were talking about with that reference, oh well):

He's SO studly! He really wanted that fedora, ha! The boy loves a hat.

No visit to MoA with Alex and Andy is complete without going to the top of the parking ramp to watch the planes fly over:

And that completes my awesome birthday weekend!

Pumpkin Patch....

For my birthday weekend, Alex & his dad took me to a pumpkin patch! (we also had movie night, grilled out steaks, ate at Hooters and walked around MoA!)

It was a gorgeous fall day and we had a great time:

Corn maze:

Alex was our maze leader and he got out us very quickly (too quick for him, he wanted to do it again and again!).

Time to find the perfect pumpkin:

Thank you Bubby for a perfect birthday weekend!
