Happy 30th Birthday Hubby!

So Ryan decided that instead of one big 30th birthday party, he wanted to stretch this birthday out for a few weeks. So we began on his birthday eve by going out to Bubs Burgers with some of our awesome friends in the ward, Scott and Paige. Soon after moving in we found that Scott and Ryan we born on the same day, same year, about 3 hours apart. Then they found out that Scott has a younger brother named Ryan and Ryan has a younger brother named Scott. An immediate bromance began, so we decided what better way to spend the Birthday Eve's then out together eating delicious burgers. The boys decided the best way to ring in their 30's was to start by doing the burger challenge and try to take down "The Big Ugly" burger. It is 22oz of meat which after cooking is a pound burger. It was touch and go for a while but they persevered and both finished! Us ladies were oh so proud:-)


Before the burgers arrived, kind of innocent of what was really in store...


Kind of a blurry pic but yes, that whole plate is burger...the large bun only covered about 2/3 of the meat...Still kind of innocent of the future, but very optimistic.

I should have got a pic of their faces about half way through when they both hit a wall and weren't sure if they would make it. However it wasn't long that the adrenaline kicked in and they downed the second half!

The last bite!!


Feelin a little shaky, but they did it!!!!


At this place if you finish it you get your picture taken and put up on the wall. Way to go boys! What a way to start the next 30 years of your life!:-) Good thing Ryan is training for a half marathon and will probably run it all off this afternoon:-)

So this was just the beginning of celebrating. Grandma and Grandpa Bird are coming in town next week so me and the hubs can have a date night for celebration, then the next week we are heading to Michigan to celebrate with Nana and Papa...Soak it up lovey! Love you and am glad I get to spend your next 30 years and more together with you!
