The big 27!

Logan recently celebrated his 27th birthday.... he's getting pretty old. j/k But I do remember attending his 22nd birthday so it does feel like we've been "together" a long time. Logan we love you.... I love you. You deserve to be immensely happy in life, and hopefully you are! So here's to you, the best husband, dad, son, brother, brother-in-law, son-in-law, birthday boy ever! It is always a good time when you are around.

We went to the beach and it was a PERFECT day to go. The water was warm and it was sunny and warm outside. Perfect. Afton crawled all over the place going from sea shell to sea shell. She'd pick them up tasted them and put them down. After awhile I realized she was chewing on some sea weed.... she's so sneaky and fast!

The birthday boy

My eternal companion.... lucky girl.

After the beach we went home, cleaned up and headed to Mission beach to go to Phil's BBQ. This place is great and so affordable. If your a true San Diegan you've heard of and been to Phil's. The line is always crazy long but it was well worth it to celebrate Logan's b-day.

Kris and Emily Holiday who celebrated their 3rd anniversary the day before.

Us. Doesn't my tri-tip sandwich look sooo good. It was! The french fries are fresh cut like In-N-Out.... so good.

Afton's first rib.... I'm sure you can guess that I didn't give that to her. The manager saw her and asked us for a copy of the picture... we'll have to send one.

Logan laughed when he saw I made cupcakes... why is that funny? I love cupcakes.

Singing Happy birthday. Logan said it was the worst birthday song he's ever heard... I guess we were that bad!

Blowing out the candles. The cake: chocolate with fudge frosting... his favorite.

Thank you to everyone who called and sent stuff on his birthday! He felt very loved. :) Now here's a little treat I found on our computer... some pictures from his birthdays past!


2004- 22nd birthday. It was quite the fiesta!

His birthday pinata.

While he was blind folded his mom mashed a water balloon on his head.... this is him getting her back!

No we're not dancing...not sure what were doing.



Same cake as always... chocolate cake with fudge frosting.





He's wearing the birthday present I made him. On our first date he told that when he got older he wanted to retire early and just spend his time bbq-ing while wearing a kiss the cook apron. He's got the apron no he just needs to get older and retire. :)


2005- 23rd birthday. Our nephew Sailor Shreeve was sealed to his family in the San Diego temple that day. We went to BJ's and got Logan a birthday pazookie.
