Happy 30th Birthday Benji!

The card Benji got from his parents had this tune in it; Tim McGraw's song says it all....

I think I'll take a moment, celebrate my age
The ending of an era and the turning of a page

Now it's time to focus in on where I go from here

Lord have mercy on my next thirty years

Hey my next thirty years, I'm gonna have some fun

Try to forget about all the crazy things I've done

Maybe now I've conquered all my adolescent fears

And I'll do it better in my next thirty years

My next thirty years, I'm gonna settle all the scores

Cry a little less, laugh a little more

Find a world of happiness without the hate and fear

Figure out just what I'm doing here

In my next thirty years

Oh my next thirty years, I'm gonna watch my weight

Eat a few more salads and not stay up so late

Drink a little lemonade and not so many beers

Maybe I'll remember my next thirty years

My next thirty years will be the best years of my life

Raise a little family and hang out with my wife

Spend precious moments with the ones that I hold dear
Make up for lost time here, in my next thirty years

It's official...Benji is now 30 years old! I think he had a great weekend...celebrated the last couple days in his 20's and then celebrated his first day in his 30's! For those that have kids, you know how little time you get to yourself and can actually do what you want. I told Benj to do what he wanted this weekend.

On Friday night, after the kiddos were in bed, he went up to the K of C to have a few drinks with the guys. Saturday morning and afternoon was full of doing yardwork (I'm not sure if that was really what he wanted to do or if he just knew it needed to get done!) and in the evening, we had a cookout with family. It was so nice to just hang out and catch up with everyone. Too bad the weather wasn't a little nicer, but let's face it, it could have been worse! Sunday, he drank some beers on the golf course with a friend, then we had dinner at my Mom & Pat's.

He truley enjoyed his Bose SoundDock that I got him for his birthday. I really think it'll be something we use a lot, especially with the weather turning warmer!

Happy 30th Birthday, Benji! My mom made him a chocolate chip cheesecake...YUM!

The famous "Schultz" cake...their cakes are wonderful! He did a great job on his Michael Jackson cake! We can't wait until they open their cake shop (coming soon!).

Happy 30th Birthday Benji!
