Daryl's 30th Birthday

Daryl was surprised this year!  Ryan was in charge of getting Daryl out of the house so the guests could arrive.  The younger cousins were in charge of being the "look-outs" at the window.  When they saw Ryan's truck we turned off the lights and all hid behind the couch.  When Daryl walked in we yelled surprise!  He was really surprised but also was trying to figure out who was in his living room since we forgot to turn the lights back on when we yelled surprise.  He was happy to see that it was his family when we turned the lights back on.  We ate a lot of pizza for dinner and Daryl's Mom made 3 cakes--one for each decade along with 30 candles!  We had a great night.  Thank you all for coming!

The "look-outs"

Daryl and Ashley

That's a lot of candles--it only took one try too!

Daryl opening Evelyn's present.  She got him a shell that she found by the river.

Jane leaned on Ashley's leg for part of the night--so cute.
