HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE... (aka: the Big 3-0, aka: June Part 1)

On June 12, 2010, Steve turned 30! It was a milestone, so I planned accordingly. Like, planning a surprise party with 50 people at a West MI Whitecaps game the week before his actual birthday. And then planning an after party at our house, which even involved sending Trey away for the night (for the first time!). He had no idea, no clue whatsoever, and was COMPLETELY shocked. It was SO fun to do that. I still can't believe all the logistics with that many people and that many variables worked out. It was amazing, even though the weather didn't cooperate. After being beautiful all day, it started raining as we were walking into the ball park (which was my biggest fear). We were able to get into our private area and have our bbq though. They did eventually call the game, so in the end we actually ended up with free tickets to another game, AND were able to have our party. Steve had such a good time and couldn't believe so many people came out to celebrate and that I was able to pull off so many surprises. Here's a few snippets into the celebrations of Steve, both at the surprise party and on his actual birthday with his family.





There are a lot of June birthdays in our family, so even though it was a big one, he was still sharing a cake. I did make him his favorite chocolate eclair dessert though, too.
