Dad's 30th
I bounced between titling this post David's 30th or Dad's 30th before going with the latter. I figure that while the majority of people who visit this blog would understand whose party it is regardless of how I identify myself, it is Ruby's blog. And I am, after all, her dad. With that out of the way, onto the fun.
I officially left my youth in the rear-view mirror and jammed the accelerator firmly into adulthood when I turned 30 on February 1. I was fortunate enough to share the weekend with friends and family - some of whom I knew were coming and others who were a total surprise. See, my mom, sister, and wife planned an awesome surprise party for me that went off without a hitch: I was entirely clueless even walking in to the restaurant where the party was held. Instead of being greeted by just Jesse and Meaghan, I was faced with a slew of family a friends, some of whom I had not seen in many years. The fact that a lot of folks came from across the state (and country!) to attend made the event that much more special. So thank you again everyone - with huge thanks to Gramma, Lauren, and Emilia. I love y'all.
Now onto the pictures. Many apologies if your beautiful face does not show up. It doesn't mean we don't love you - just that we didn't get a good (or any) picture of you:
Many more after the jump ...

Bye, Gramma and Grampa!
Gramma and Grampa were in town for my birthday and the following week to spend time with Ruby and learn about financial, permitting, and legal issues surrounding wind energy. Respectively speaking, that is.
The trip was a blast, topped off with the surprise birthday party that Lauren, Gramma, and Emilia planned for my 30th birthday. It went off without a hitch, as I was entirely clueless even walking into the restaurant.
Of the many gifts I received from family and friends, the king of 'em all is the new camera I received from my parents, sister, and brother-in-law. I promised to repay them by taking as many pictures as possible. With that in mind, a few pictures from today:
