29

We celebrated Matt's 29th birthday last week. That's right, 29, but from the looks of his celebrating you may have thought he turned 15 :) Matt's brother Michael convinced Matt to get more into skateboarding about a year ago. So for his birthday, he, Michael and our nephew Taylor got to have a private lesson at skate place near us. It really was a blast for everyone. Here they are warming up.

Crew loved watching and playing on the ramps with his cousins Not too bad for a couple of old guys;)
Sweet little Sydney
Grandma and Sydney Saturday night we had a party for Matt out at his parents with a bunch of Matt's buddies he grew up with. Unfortunatley I forgot candles so Matt got a gigantic one on his cupcake!
Us with the Copples. We go way back with these guys. All the way back to the very first date! We played a dancing game on the Wii that was hilarious
We even convinced Matt's parents to do a song
Most of the gang that was there. It was so much fun to see everyone.
All in all, I would have to say it was a great birthday. We love you Matt!

It was a fun party and watching my boys skateboard was almost as nerve-wracking as watching them play football!

Shannon I am so glad you have been able to spend time with Justin and Shellee. They are the sweetest couple, and just a bright and fun as you and Matt are. We have been so lucky to have both of you in our lives! Happy birthday Matt. I think the big candle is the best part Shan.

What a celebration! Crew seriously looks like he is contemplating jumping in and joining the big boys on their skate boards! And I would be willing to bet that he would get the hang of it as if he WERE a big boy!

Happy birthday Matt!!
