Happy 29th Birthday to Jer/Dada!

Jer turned the big 2-9! I can't believe that next year he'll be 30. Actually, both of us will be but still, he'll turn old before me. I invited 2 of our friends over (who happened to have kids themselves) for a lunch cookout. I know that Jer would like nothing more then to drink a cold beer and be at the grill...so I made that happen. Marisa & Chris plus Jayden (3) and Denise & Pat plus Jack (3 months) came over for brats, hotdogs, hamburgers, casseroles, pasta salad, fresh strawberries, and lots of beer. So yeah, it was carb central but calories don't count on birthdays and holidays, right? We were having such a good time with everyone that we had to push back our dinner plans so we didn't have to kick anyone out. We met Jeremy's best friend, Brian, and his girlfriend for dinner at BD Mongolian Grill. Another one of Jeremy's favorite places to eat because it's basically a buffet of veggies and meat that you give someone to cook on a huge wok type of thing. He can devour 2 plates while 1 is more then plenty for me. I think it was a great birthday for him and I'm glad I'm part of his life to help him celebrate it.
