Our Weekend

This weekend was full of fun and exciting surprises. Saturday Mike and I got to spend some time reflecting over the last 10 years. It was so nice to look back and remember how we met, how we fell in love and what our roller coaster of a ride has been. It is crazy to think that we have known each other for 10 years!

Saturday afternoon the guys took Mike out for a beer while I put the finishing touches on a surprise party. Since Mike turned the big 30, there was need for celebration. With the help some very gracious friends we made 15 pounds of potatoes, 30 sausages and onion gravy (Bangers and Mash). He was genuinely surprised and the party was fantastic. Lots of great food, Guinness and friends! I will have to post some pictures when I get them from Jessi...she was on camera duty for me.

Sunday morning we all rolled out of bed and headed to brunch with the DeWaals and Johns Bowlings. We ate at a wonderful cafe, Portage Bay Cafe, and all left so full we could burst. Since we needed to take to work off some of the food we headed over to the University of Washington to walk through campus. The cherry bloosoms were beautiful and we got some great pictures.

Aunt Angie was also here for the weekend. It was so nice to have an extra set of hands. The boys loved having her around. Samuel was especially sad to see her go.

Overall we had a fantastic weekend. I was a bit tired though...good thing you only turn 30 once!
