Put us together we are 66 ....

Wes and I turned 33 this month! Yeikes! That sounds old! Why do I not feel any older than 20? Whatever the fact that I said that makes me sound even older .....

Wes made me dinner and his famous Chocolate Cake, and we had some friends over for my Birthday. It was fun, and of course the cake was Sooooo Good! Thanks Wes!
The next day we did a little mini golfing. The kids had a good time. Reagan has a good little swing, she took it pretty serious (as usual) and kept score, but did manage to have a little fun! Dylan had a good swing, especially considering his full arm cast! He loved it until the last hole when the ball was gone forever. Jack figured golfing out really quick! He started swinging and attempting to putt but pretty soon he'd just wait for his turn, and set his ball down perfectly about 1 inch from the hole, then just tap it in! Flawless shot every time!

For Wes's Birthday we had some dinner and Strawberry Shortcake (Wes's favorite)! A couple of days later we went to a State Park here in PA called Pymatuning State Park. Wes knew of a place there called, "the place where the ducks walk on fish." It's a spillway where HUGE carp beg for bread and people feed them, kinda yucky! The ducks really do walk on the fish to get to the bread people are throwing. The carp are kinda gross a little nauseating to see them, they are ugly and their mouths are huge. They would follow you along the shore line sidewalk with their mouths opened .... yuck.
Dylan was done sooner than the other 2 and wanted to find a map and our hiking trail. I had seen a trail online in this park that took you past 2 beaver damns and sounded kinda cool so we thought we'd find it. We've missed hiking a lot since we left the desert so I was really excited to find somewhere fun for us to hike. Well we didn't! After asking 3 different people, (including a park ranger who gave us a map and pointed out the hike for me!)taking about 6 wrong turns, and being in the "right spot" 4 times we parked our nearly out of gas van and walked along a train in the woods near some cabins. They obviously don't have the same idea about hiking in PA as they do in UT! Mark your trails better Easterners! But the kids had fun and it was still pretty walking through the woods!
All in all it was a good 33 for Wes and Me!

Wes, if Jodi hadn't posted your age, the Led Zepplen shirt would have definitely given you away! Happy birthday to you both!
