SURPRISE! The big 30

While we were up in Utah to see my little brother come home from his mission I grabbed the opportunity to celebrate Tyler.

His birthday, the big 30, was this last Monday, the 6th.

I wanted to throw him a surprise party for this big event and show him how much I appreciate him. It worked out perfect that we were going to be up by all of our family a couple of days before his birthday.

I actually pulled off the surprise. I had been planning it for a couple of months and there were so many times I almost slipped.

His dad took him out birthday shopping to get him away for a couple of hours.SURPRISE!!!
Our best friends Josh and Lindsay and their adorable kids, Kambree and Creed.

Caught sneaking some frosting, with help from Grandpa.

There were a lot of people there and I took lots of pictures but they were all candid ones, and while those are the best pictures, I am sure that a lot of people will be grateful I didn't post them.

Thank you so much to everyone for coming and helping out.

Val, your salad was yummy and, of course, a hit.
