Happy Birthday Jared!

Christmas Day 2010 was also Jared's big 3-0 birthday (that's right, his birthday is actually 12-25)! 

We officially celebrated a month early with a surprise dinner in Dallas with the Gurgs at Jared's favorite steakhouse, Nick & Sam's.  It's impossible to try to get together with friends close to Christmas, so we decided to do it early (plus we were both able to have babysitters for the night!).  We had a great time together and did our best to celebrate the big new decade!

For the past five years, Jared and I talked about his big 30th birthday present would be a trip to Augusta National for the Masters tournament.  The Masters is Jared's absolute favorite sporting event of the year and it is a total dream of his to be able to see it in person.  But considering that we will have a baby at that very time, we decided to postpone that trip to his 40th birthday.  Instead (but still keeping in the golf state of mind), our sweet families pitched in and helped me get Jared a new set of golf clubs!  I would say it was time considering he got his last set of clubs as a freshman in high school!   He loves them and is happy to report better rounds!

A birthday is not a birthday without a birthday cake and some singing!  So, we gathered around while at my parents' celebrating Christmas to take a moment to celebrate Jared. 

Happy 3-0 Jared!  We have now been together for half of our lives!  Love this man more and more each day!!

Singing "Happy Birthday"!!!

I guess our singing was really off-key...
