After we relaxed just a bit poolside and in our rooms, we headed downstairs for our little celebration! I had picked up a cake from none other than Peggy Brown (it traveled well, thank goodness!) and Uncle Steve had Uncle Bryan's gift all ready.
Here is Bryan's cake!
Aunt Allie and Alyssa sing Happy Birthday to Bryan!
The birthday boy and his beautiful wife and daughter!
Even though Henry didn't get any cake, he did get to enjoy some rice cereal!!!
After we enjoyed our cake, it was present time!
Nana and Papa came through with their always appreciated card and cash!
Jackie, Steve, Dan and I got Bryan this "thing" that has 123,000 songs on it, all from Steve's computer! This was a great gift as Steve had his laptap there so we had rocking cool music when we moved the party back upstairs to our rooms!
Papa provided a "bonus" gift as it turns out that Papa and Bryan were on a winning team for a two day golf tournament they had played in! A $200 check...is it too late for me to pick up the game??? I have to have SOME genetic golfplaying ability, eh??? Anyhow, here was the check presentation!!!
Here was our party...
The hotel we stayed at had just opened in April and it was beautiful! Each adult guest all received 3 free drinks from the bar and somehow, Uncle Steve got a few more cards in order to get even more drinks! When it was said and done, Uncle Bryan and Nana each brought upstairs a tray full of 6 or 7 drinks!
How much have you been drinking already, Bryan???
Nana's happy, she has her margaritas!!!
I'm not going to make too much fun though as I thoroughly enjoyed those margaritas, as you can see in this self portrait! (Notice, I have on one of my 5K shirts??? Even after our fun night of drinkin and game playing, Jackie and I were up before 6 a.m. to run a 5K in the hotels fitness center!)
The kids all FINALLY went to sleep! So we all played Taboo...love, love, love that game!!! Too many stories to tell about that game, but a shout out to Bryan for "parsley!" and to Uncle Steve, dang it, I just fell down and guess what I lost??? Yep, you are right, my "contact lenses!"
Before we knew it, it was morning!
We had a great breakfast and then took a family shot! My camera was the last one we used, so Luke was DONE with his photo shoot! I'm hoping Nana or Steve got a better shot!!!
It was then back home to reality! This was such a fun trip! I can't wait to go back again next year!!! And, a very Happy 30th Birthday to the best brother a girl could ask for!!! We love ya, Bry!!!
