Happy Birthday, Brian!!!!

Brian, my husband, turns 30 today!! I have a 30-year-old husband! It just sounds weird. When I met Brian he was only 20...can you believe that? Just a week shy of his 21st birthday! I'm so lucky to have met the love of my life so young. We've spent nearly a decade together. But if you would have told me nine years ago that I would be living in NY with Brian, celebrating his 30th Birthday I would have laughed in disbelief.

So to celebrate the big 3-0, George and I made a party for Brian. While the birthday boy was out with work peeps last night, we wrapped presents and got all the decorations together. Patty sent cool Transformer party stuff. George is a really big help when it comes to wrapping. He lays on top of the paper so that you can't use it. At one point I put the curling ribbon down my shirt to prevent him from eating it. And when I put all the wrapped presents in a bag to hide from Brian, George went ahead and jumped in the bag to make sure everything was secure.


This morning, George and I got up early to get the party ready. We put out the Transformer table cloth, napkins, party favors, masks and a Happy Birthday sign. Then I made breakfast. I meant to make an omelet but it didn't work, so Brian got a cheesy scramble. Brian didn't get home until 2am last night, and he was a little "tipsy", so the 8am wake up call didn't really go over that well. But he loved the party. We ate breakfast and then opened presents.




He got a Wii from his parents*


A digital frame from his bro's and sis.


And a really cool photo album, full of Brian pics, from his Grandma Patsy and mom.


Happy Birthday, Brian. I love you!

*Note to self! Do not give husband Wii at the beginning of the day. He played it for almost an hour, and didn't get ready for work until 10am!!!
