Old & Moldy

It's official. As of today Tyler is old & moldy. Yes its' true, our favorite grown up kid is 30 years old today. THANK YOU to everyone who helped me with his surprise party on Saturday & also THANK YOU to everyone who helped throw him off the trail. I do realize that it was difficult at times- Ty's not an easy one to fool once he gets an idea that something's going on. I appreciate all the lies told on my behalf. Surely you'll be forgiven. And to those of you who thought I cried because he saw your car, rest assured that's not the reason. I was amazed that I got Tyler to the restaurant before he knew what was going on. The crying is a result of a genetic malfunction which causes me to cry anytime I'm overwhelmed, nervous, relieved, etc., or a combination of said factors. Don't let it alarm you, & get used to it. It was a great night & Tyler keeps talking about how nice it was that so many people showed up for him. So THANKS again, everyone!! We're so lucky & blessed to have so much wonderful family & so many great friends.
