I wanted to make this birthday super special for him because:
1. He's 30.
2. He has put up with a lot of crap from me. I have not enjoyed pregnancy, nor do I know the meaning of the phrase "suffer in silence." The man is a saint.
I saved and saved all my piddly allowance for months so I could buy him a super cool, 30-worthy, adult present.
I think he likes it!
It's a Big Green Egg! But since I couldn't wrap that huge thing, I made a little green egg to throw him off the trail.
We had a party! With invitations! And yummy cake & cupcakes from a real bakery!
Here are two of my new favorite people. LeLe and Katie. LeLe is a recent Auburn grad and newlywed. She is taking my job at the church. We should all stop right now and pray for her. Katie also works at the church. She is the Children's Ministry Director. They are going to miss me SO MUCH come November.
Me and J on his big day.
Nicole, Sally and Adriane.

Men. Outside in the heat and humidity. Sorry about the fog. 
More men. More fog.
The bounty of food from Moe's BBQ. They really do a great catering job. I was impressed. Their stuff is yum-o. We had pork, beans & squash casserole. And white sauce. I do love a good white sauce.
We had to eat outside, because our house does not hold 40 people.
Me and Jason (who looks positively thrilled to have his picutre taken)
Chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream icing. Nicole said it was the best cake she's ever had! (It was a bit much for me...) From Something Sweet in Daphne.
Lighting the candles in my cute shirt!
Happy Birthday to you!
And thanks to Lucy for taking the pictures!
