Happy 30th Birthday Jerron!

Last weekend we celebrated Jerron's 30th birthday! He requested a weekend of camping so that's just what we did! So we rallied up the gang and headed south to Brown County State Park!

Culver's was our first stop for dinner. Here we made everyone in the restaurant sing happy birthday! We arrived in Brown Co. late Friday night and pitched the tents in the dark. Luckily our "neighbors" let us borrow their lantern which came handy when finding the outhouse as well!

Saturday we went into town (Nashville, IN) for some wine tasting and window shopping. The town is so adorable and you can't help but want to live there! We immediately headed to a restaurant for home made fried chicken and the best biscuits and apple butter I've ever had! Again, we made everyone in the restaurant sing happy birthday to Jerron! HA HA! As we were walking around our group was approached by the MC to the annual outhouse races. We tried to talk Jerron into climbing in and without hesitation said "absolutely not!". Brandon and Jeff agreed to participate and Jeff won by a landslide! Fudge and ice cream tasting was next and I couldn't resist getting a waffle cone full of peanut butter chocolate chip ice cream!

Back at the camp sites that evening Jeff and Joni cooked a delicious meal of brats, hot dogs, and hamburgers. With our bellies full we started to celebrate! The neighbors came over with strawberry moonshine and poured everyone a shot to cheer Jerron turning 30! They also brought Jerron a gift of fake Viagra! Every car that drove by we made them say happy birthday to Jerron. Of course Jerron was way over the birthday song, which made it even funnier that we would sing it at every meal!

Sunday morning Jeff and Joni again made a yummy meal of pancakes and sausage. I made my last two s'mores and then started to pack all our stuff. The weekend was full of beautiful weather, laughs, good food, and great company! It was a quick, but wonderful weekend at Brown county!

I honestly never thought I'd see the day...Jacob got rewarded for NOT talking! Jacob's school gives out "Cub Stubs" to students who are doing a great job without being asked. Jacob got a Cub Stub for being responsible and respectable in the cafeteria! My baby's all grown up...*tear*



Another surprise on the Garber front...Jerron is a damn good barber! He cut the boy's hair Sunday and he did a great job! I want my money back Sports Clips!



On a side note...who's in LOVE with the new fall daytime TV schedule?! I am so excited! Not only did The Chew get a second season, but General Hospital is on in time for me to watch before Jacob gets home! Do you have a day time TV schedule and if so what is your favorite show?

The Old Fort is a Civil War reenactment in which families can come and interact with characters, go inside houses, and watch shows being acted out right in front of you! Jacob must've been having a great time because he didn't ask to sit down once! Ethan on the other hand told me he hated it...can't please everyone!

It's Facebook Fan Friday! Every Friday the fans of Caffeine and Curls are able to upload their favorite pics on my Facebook page! This week we are start things off right with SHAMING PICTURES!

Have y'all heard of Dog Shaming? I laughed so hard at these pictures mainly because I can relate! I am the proud owner of two cats and a dog. They definitely keep me on my toes. I wake up to cat hairballs, the dog barking at the wind, water from their bowl all over the floor, and the list goes on and on! Here are a few of my favorite pictures from dogshaming.com.



BUT...you know what's even more relatable? That's right, KID SHAMING! We all have the stories we'll never forget. When Jacob was 2 he wrote all over the back of my mother's newly upholstered chairs. When Ethan was 2 he decided to empty baby powder inside of my dresser drawers. Kids are so dang cute...right? While the terrible two's are over, I am now in the midst of the ferocious four's and nauseous nine's!




So now it's your turn! Upload your pet or kid shaming picutres on my facebook fan page! Have fun!
