What a Blessed Pre-Birthday Celebration!

Caroline planned an amazing Saturday morning breakfast!  

She (along with some late-Friday-night accomplices!) even decorated the house with balloons and made a beautiful fall table display!  

And not only all of that, she gifted me with this amazing basket of all my favorite things! 

Then, to top all that . . . . she planned this special breakfast to be a surprise with ALL of the local-ish kids and grandkids arriving together just before we sat down to eat!  I had NOOOOOOOOO idea!  

Caroline diced up a bunch of apples to make spiced apple topping for her homemade pumpkin pancakes!!!!  And Daddy made an amazing meat, egg, cheese scramble! 

What a special start to the very special day!  Shortly after the amazing breakfast, we all headed out to go to a local pumpkin patch!  Pictures to follow in the next post!  (I guess this one will end up being posted first, which will end up being on the bottom of the pumpkin patch post!)
