Happy Birthday B Love!

My sweet fiance turned 28 yesterday. So, in honor of this and our new home/engagement/etc. I decided to throw a party and invite out all of our closest friends. I was very nervous because I have never really hosted a party... So, Friday, Hillary and I went to Target and bought food and decorations and $100 later, we were finished. I am not sure since I've never hosted, but $100 didn't seem TOO bad. And small price to pay for a man that takes such good care of me. :)

Saturday, I got up early and worked in yard-- I finished planting flowers and putting bark around our trees. Then I cleaned cleaned cleaned.
Matt's parents and grandparents came out a little early to celebrate before all of our friends came over. His dad just got back from Iceland Friday at midnight, so they weren't able to stay long because he was exhausted! But they did bring us some awesome stuff to entertain outdoors. They brought all this cute green stuff and outdoor plates and silverware. I was so excited and I'm so thankful that they did this for us for our engagement/wedding/housewarming/Matt's birthday! :) I will post pictures soon! After they left, our friends began arriving and so many more made it out than I expected. We do live a bit further from everyone than we used to. I was so glad to see everyone and I know Matt had a blast. I would consider my first time as a party-thrower a success!

We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family. Happy birthday Matty. I LOVE YOU!

We missed you, Mom and Dad!
