John's 30th Birthday

Since John had to be at the hotel at 8 on his birthday we went to an early dinner at the Grand Luxe with the Clarks, Becks, and Fields. The night before was the Dolphin's party so we couldn't do it then. We had a sitter watch all 5 kids so they could be there when we came back for cake and ice cream. I had John's parents send me some of his childhood pictures and I created a JOHN SHRINE.

Since we had to replace our water heater a couple days earlier John said that's what he wanted for his birthday but I had already gotten him Guitar Hero World Tour! It's got some great songs on it.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! I just got through reading about the 12 Birthday wishes! You are AMAZING Christy for putting all of that together! It looks like you had a lot of fun! What a cool 30th!

So creative, Christy. I may have to remember that when John turns 40 since it's too late for 30! Looks like you had tons of fun. We got dumped on with snow today and you're all still dressed for winter! I wanted to tell you that one of my best friends when I lived in Tucson was the Weisenberger's daughter, Mindy. We put two-and-two together last week that you knew them too. Small world! I love all your comments on my blog, I laughed at your last one about Josie's wa-hoo!
Take care! Mindy

You are so creative and beautiful! I love your blog! We were just at the Waldorf hotel in New York and they had some kind of NFL convention! I felt like a dwarf surrounded by all the players! They are huge!
I really miss your sister! If you talk to her tell her to call me! She was my best friend in the ward and now I am so sad!
