30 years

I think that other than his 2 years mission, this may have been Jay's first birthday away from family and away from the Utah state holiday Pioneer Day.  

July 24. 

And how did we celebrate?  We worked.  Jay worked a 12 hour shift.  I worked 11 hours. Welcome to real life.  

 I did manage to make a birthday cake.  

It was the same cake and frosting recipe as our wedding cake and this time I finally nailed the frosting.  

 Dinner was nothing special (kimchi Pajun). 

We celebrated at Red Robin a few days later thanks to a free meal. 

But the birthday gifts made up for a lame dinner. 

Bohnanza, Sodastream, "To the stars on the wings of a Pig" and...

A gym for the basement.  

Here's to enjoying the next 30 years and hoping we accomplish as much in the coming 30 years as we did in the previous 30 years.
