Monday February 16, 2009 Mark turned 30!

We had a “Favorite Things” day, which included ice skating because he used to play hockey. He had a great time out on the ice, and so did Brit!

But, sadly, after only a few trips around the ice, Mark was told Brit wasn’t allowed to be carried. He was pretty bummed the rest of the time. He kept watching and reaching for the ice.

But, a few other friends came to skate with Mark…like Ray,

And Kristie twirling, and Jared was there too, he just never did any cool, camera worthy tricks. =)

And me…so graceful.

Then it was home, to Reeder’s Rancheria for some other favorites–like Mexican Food!

The peeps…chattin’ and having a good time…

Then…it was time for another favorite: Music! at Reeder’s Rock Arena and (though, we were a little light on rock, or music in general…)

He’s a great candle blower! This is his Flourless Chocolate Cake…no basic white or yellow for him.

Just so people know, we do spend time together and exist together. See, here’s a picture even.

It was great getting together with friends and celebrating Mark’s milestone. Happy Birthday honey, I love you!
