Back in early October, the weather was warm and sunny - it was perfect for my birthday weekend!
NC State had a home game that Saturday and Avery was out of school that Monday. Since I get my birthday off from work, Avery and I decided to stay an extra day at the Back Forty Farm.
Carter got to hang out with Mimi and Papa on Saturday and came with us to brush Bucky on Sunday morning before he and Daddy headed back to Charlotte. Sunday afternoon, all the girls and Jude went to Gross Farms in Sanford. They have an awesome corn maze, sand mound, tunnel slide, petal tractors, and professional cloggers to entertain us while we took an ice cream break!
Sunday night was my birthday dinner complete with my traditional chocolate cake with candy corn :)
Thank you to all my family who celebrated with me in person and from afar. I really appreciate the cards, texts, calls and gifts.

This was a serious maze! We didn't solve the mystery inside the maze (you have to hit several "destinations" along the way), but we did make it out.

Monday morning, we took a ride on Bucky around the farm.
