Greg’s 30th Birthday!

Friday, Greg turned the big 3-0!

The day started off just like any other day – or so Greg had originally thought. But little did he know that Jen had arranged other plans for his day (with his boss’ approval of course!) to swoop in, surprise him at his desk (boy was he sure surprised to look up and see Jen standing there!), kidnap him from work at lunchtime and take him away for the rest of the afternoon! We picnicked out at Garden of the Gods, took a leisurely drive around the park, and then headed home for a little nap before dinner. We went out for a fairly late dinner, and then came home to finish celebrating with dessert, presents, and a movie. His actual birthday was more private – it was just the two of us......

...... but last night, we celebrated with about 30 of our friends and family. Jen threw him a party that was a huge success - music, appetizers, cake, and a lot of fun to go with it! He made out with quite the loot, too! We partied fairly late into the evening and then went out for our “after party” to go do some midnight bowling with some friends and family. We had never done that before and it seemed like the perfect ending to the most perfect evening!

It was a great party! I like the way Greg made his birthday celebration last for three days!!! I guess a "big" birthday like this one deserves it!

Gosh, it looks like y'all had such a great time. So sorry we missed it...we'll make it up somehow, though. Promise. :)

Happy Birthday, Greg!
