surprise.

Well...Kurtis turns 30 on May 31!  30 years old!  The families and I knew this was big, so we decided to throw him a little surprise birthday bash!  I twisted Jeff's arm (right...) to take Kurtis fishing so he was out of my hair all day, and the moms and I (and my dad and Emily) got everything together for the party! 

The party was a Brats n' Beer Birthday Bash!  Kurtis showed up to a houseful of people and some silly decorations and LOTS of great food (thanks everyone for bringing such great chow)!  I was so happy with the turnout, and the night was fantastic!  Here's the proof!

I wish I'd have snapped pics of everyone here!  I missed lots of you - including the rest of our parents!  I need to get better about snapping more pics!  All in all, it was a fantastic evening!  Thanks everyone for coming and making Kurtis' BIG b-day spesh!
