Happy Birthday, Sean!

Saturday was my sweet husband's 30th birthday. I asked him repeatedly what he wanted to do for this monumental occasion... and he said a quiet dinner out to his favorite steakhouse. Well... I guess I thought 30 was too big of a birthday to celebrate with just a "quiet dinner." I decided that a surprise birthday party at his favorite steakhouse was much more appropriate.

SURPRISE!!







Some of our most favorite people in the world... thanks for making this surprise so special!



My beautiful mom and sisters.



Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Robby... out for one of the first times since little Mason was born one month ago. Stephanie looks amazing!



Sean's wonderful parents, Cindy and Jerry.

Strangely enough, Sean wasn't all that happy about his party at first. To be honest, I knew he would probably react that way, but come on... it's his 30th birthday!!! I can't just let it slide along like any other birthday! It needed to be a big deal! I wanted him to know just how loved he is!



As we lit the candles, he still looked just a little ticked off.



But here he's looking a little happier! Ha! I guess a round of "Happy Birthday" did the trick.



The whole bunch. I can't thank everyone enough for coming out and making this such a memorable birthday for Sean. We love you! Sean finally admitted on the way home that he felt pretty special... but I'm not allowed to even think about another surprise party until he's 50. Ha!



It's hard to believe I met this man when we were only 16, started dating at 17, and at 30 I feel like we're still the same couple from high school... totally in love and amazingly blessed to have each other. Here's to the next 30 years together, Sean. Love you.
