Jon's Birthday Extravaganza!!!!


Jon celebrated his 31st Birthday on July 21st. In our family, we don't just celebrate birthdays for one day... we take as long as needed to get the full effect. It is usually at least a week, sometimes longer if we are feeling lively:) Anyway, we started Jon's Birthday festivities the Friday before. Sarah and Taylor came down to ATL for the weekend. We went out for dinner and then to a comedy show. The headliner for the comedy show was Judah Friedlander, he stars in the show 30 Rock. He was great! Saturday, we had a birthday party at our house with friends, food and booze. What else could a guy ask for on his birthday...don't answer that:) We had a intense game of bocce ball, which I must add that I dominated the game. I know, I should have taken it easy on the old man...what can I say. Then we played some darts and pool and then decided it would be best for all involved to go to bed.

Then we continued the Birthday festivities in Savannah. Taylor and Sarah came down too...they are dedicated birthday celebrators! We stayed Mon-Thurs and we had a blast! Over our many trips to Savannah this year we have had some of the best food. There are tons of restaurants and most of them have unbelievable food. Jon and Taylor both had to work during the days:( Sarah and I decided to take this opportunity to go to the beach!!! I know that hardly seems fair, since it is Jon's birthday, but what are two girls so close to the ocean to do:) We only stayed for a few hours each day because during this time of year dogs aren't allowed on the beach and I didn't want to leave Stella alone for too long. Here are a few pictures from the Extravaganza...but be sure to check out the links to the left!

Go Braves!!!



We have had a busy Holiday weekend! Jon golfed on Friday with Travis, Bryan and Kevin. I spent the day making sure the pool was in proper condition. Then we went to a 4TH of July Festival with Hollie and Travis and some of their family. It was at Atlanta National Country Club. It was set up like a Carnival, so Hollie's niece and nephew kept us very busy running from booth to booth. There were lots of activities, lots of food and lots of fireworks. We had a blast! Yesterday we spent the day helping Travis and Hollie work on building an "outdoor kitchen". It is just at the beginning stages, but I think it will look amazing when they are done. Jon worked very hard during the day and was ready for some fun when they got done. Good thing we had tickets to the Braves game! We went to the game last night with Ashley, Bryan and Ashley's dad. Despite the fact that the Braves got creamed, we had a great time there too! I think Ashley and I did more talking then watching:) (but that is nothing new).
