The end of another week

So another week has come and gone. I have to say, it's been a rough one. There were some lows and some highs. As you all know by now, but uncle passed this week. A huge thank you to all of my friends and family who sent prayers and were there for me. On the upside, my fabulous mother turned 50! Hehehe, if you're reading this, I love you mommy! My life hasn't been the easiest one, but I'm certainly not complaining. My mother and I have not always had the relationship we have now, in fact we went almost a decade without talking. That all changed a few years ago, and the only regret I have was not getting in touch with her sooner. She is one of my best friends, and there are days that I don't know what I would do without her. So here's to you mom, Happy Birthday!
We didn't make it to the pumpkin patch this weekend unfortunately. I would say we will go next weekend, but with the hubs being gone we won't be going until he gets back. On the upside to this, when we do finally get our pumpkins, we can carve them since we'll only be a few days away from Halloween!
The kid somehow decided she knew everything this week, and this is what we kept hearing, "I know everything there is to know in the whole wide world, but when I turn 5 I won't know everything anymore"
That's pretty much the funniest thing she said, but it became on ongoing joke.
 I did find out that she does know how to add small numbers together so long as she can use her fingers. I asked her what 6 +6 was and she took off her shoes and started to count her toes as well! We were all cracking up over here.
With Halloween being right around the corner I went ahead and printed off some Halloween related activities off for her and since she's been sick and kept indoors we pretty much did that all day and had a blast doing so.
We also baked a yummy angel food cake and chopped up some strawberries to go on top tonight. I would have taken a picture, but she wanted a piece first. I cut her one and was intending to grab the camera and take a picture of the rest. By the time I got back to dog had started to eat our cake though! Oh no! Guess that means I'll just have to bake another one, darn! =)
