We had a fun surprise party for Mark's 30th birthday last Saturday. I told him we were going on a date and we were dropping our kids off at my parent's house. When he walked in the room and they turned on the lights and yelled surprise Mark was totally surprised. He had
no idea I was doing this. It was awesome. We had a lot of fun playing fuse ball, air hockey, ping pong and being together.

It was so funny while we were eating dinner at Sweet Tomatoes before the party. I've never eaten there so fast in my life. I was rushing the kids and Mark - come on eat fast! Luckily Mark just thought I was excited to get going on our date, but actually it was getting really close to the time I told everyone we would be there. Just as we were about to leave, Brynli tells me she has to go potty. I felt like saying tough luck little lady - you can't go! (Like you can tell that to a tiny little girl who is still learning to go potty! or really any little kid for that matter.) Thankfully we made it there in good time and really weren't too much later than I had said.

Christie got me so good on this one! It was kind of embarassing since the first thing I said when we got to her parents' house before I was suprised was "I gotta go to the bathroom." Oh well, friends don't care about that kind of thing, right? Thanks for an awesome birthday babe. Oh, and I almost won the two-on-one foosball best-of-three championship of the world match...tournament...quest...thing.
Yay! Happy Birthday Mark! So how is it being 30? Good job, Christie, on the surpirse. And, oh my goodness, those are the cutest pictures ever of your kids-or maybe they are just the cutest kids ever.
Happy Birthday to a great brother. The surprise was so great!! Nice job, Christie. Your blog title picture is so sweet. Your kids are sure growing fast.

It was so good to hang out for awhile...we are getting so old!
We're not that old! :) You're only as old as you feel. :) Thanks about the pictures. I decided I better snap some nicer shots of them since we still haven't had our family pictures done yet. I asked them to sit by each other and I'm so glad I captured that sweet moment!
Mark---You are an old man! :) I so wish we could have been there! I love the new pics of your kids. It is a little uncanny how much Caleb looks like Mark and Brynli looks like a blonder Christie! Lucky kids! :)
Ohhh what a fun surprise!! Way to go Christie! And no offense, but Mark I had no idea you were that old! :)
I love that picture of your kids, they are so beautiful... and handsome!! Hope to see you guys again sometime soon!
Whenever I see Mark holding Caleb I think it's amazing how much they look alike! When I see Brynli running around sometimes I feel like I'm seeing a little me! It's pretty fun.
