I had a wonderful birthday this year thanks to my family and incredible husband. We started the day with a trip to the pumpkin patch. There is something about this place that I just love. How could you not...fresh peaches, strawberries, apples, pumpkins...something wonderful year round.

Jamie planned some time for me at a spa and then took me out to dinner at a restaurant that rotates while you eat. It has such amazing views of the city lights and the arch. Just gorgeous and so fun to get all dressed up together. I am thankful for a husband that likes to celebrate moments together...even the small moments. And yes, he is taken and he's all mine.

This is a funny picture to me. In the parking lot that night was a toyota solara, which was the first car I bought myself and I LOVED it. It was sort of like my dream car. We parked across from it in our Odyssey and it just made me laugh how much my life has changed in the past 10 years.

We met my parents in Columbia for the afternoon the next day. We played at the park and had a nice dinner together.
