Well, it's official!! Bruce is now in his 30's!! For his actual birthday, Jan 11th we went to Ruth's Chris for dinner and it was YUMMY!! I highly recommend it! But little did Bruce know that I was throwing him a surprise birthday party!! That next Friday night, he knew we were celebrating it but he didn't know where/how/who/what it was going to be!! I had been thinking about how to bring in this milestone for over a year (in fact, I was pregnant with Parker discussing the details with Bruce's mom!! hehe) and I decided that we were going to have a decade's dance with everyone coming dressed up as a decade!! We had it at the Davenport in Downtown Greer which is a banquet/special occasion hall where they have dances, rehearsal dinners, wedding receptions, etc. It's a beautiful venue with lots of historic charm!! We hired a DJ (thanks Tony and Shannon) and a caterer (Betty, the food was fabulous!) and had a BLAST!!!It was so much fun and everyone looked fantastic in their outfits!! Thanks to everyone who came and celebrated my wonderful husband's birthday--it wouldn't have been the same if you weren't there!! Needless, to say--Bruce was surprised!! (I had blindfolded him on the way there, and already had our clothes there to change into!!--even Parker dressed as a 80's baby!!) :)
Happy Birthday Bruce!!
'Here Daddy, let me help you'
Parker all ready to go to the party!! This is actually Bruce's outfit that he wore when he was a baby--so it really is a 80's outfit!! How fun! :)
