Surprise.... Steve is 30!!

So on Friday April 6, Steve turned 30. Steven woke up and sang happy birthday to him first thing in the morning, he had practiced it about 30 times the day before and nailed it on the first try!! It was very cute. I had also trained my boy to tell daddy he is an "old man" and he too nailed this on the first try and every try after that. Now if you ask Steven what daddy is he will say "old man".

The day was pretty normal from there on, Steve had planned his own birthday by inviting a few of his close friends and family to dinner at Tony Romas. He was completely unaware that I had been planning an ambush surprise party for over a month! At 4:00 as we were all ready to go to "dinner" the doorbell rang and there were some friends and cousins here. Steve was a little surprised as he thought we were all just meeting at the restaurant but he went with it thinking they just came by for a drink before dinner. Then a few more come and he still is clueless but he says "well I guess we have time for one beer before we go to the restaurant". He had recruited Devon & Teri to get us a table so he figured we did not have anything to worry about. Well then Devon and Teri walked in the door too. Right about then I was on the floor laughing because it has been about 15 minutes there are now 10 to 15 people at the house and he was just finally clueing in as to what is going on. I seriously was on the floor laughing! I have to give cudos to my cousin David for playing Steve like a fiddle when he was talking about having to leave for dinner. Well the ambush worked like a charm, Steve was completely clueless. I can't believe after knowing me for 6 years he thought I had not done anything for him. You would think by now he would know that I take care of him!! All in all it was a great evening with family and friends thanks to everyone that could come and celebrate with us!!

So sorry we missed the big bash. The wedding that weekend kind of took over everything.

Glad you made it to the 30's though Steve!! You're headed to a great time in life!
