Happy 30th Birthday!!!













This is a big birthday, the big 3-0!! Last night we went out with the residents in Dave's class and had a delicious Italian dinner at "Supper" in the city. It was a beautiful night to be out and we had a great time- thanks to Peter and Dara for watching the kids and sleeping on our couch- you guys are awesome! This morning we had a yummy crepe breakfast with strawberries, bananas, whipped cream, oj and chocoate milk. The kids were so excited to put up the balloons and streamers this morning and wake Dave up by singing Happy Birthday! After breakfast we opened presents and then had to send Dad off to work for the day (he's on 11am-11pm). We had a fun relaxing morning and Dave and I are going out on Saturday to celebrate- but it's a surprise so you'll have to check back to see what we did- it's going to be great!

Happy Birthday, Dave. What a great blog post. It made me appreciate the inimitable Dr. Francis even more.
