Wow, so it’s been ages it seems since I’ve blogged and now I’ve got a fresh new looking blog! The summer has been busy but relaxing at the same time, which is the way it should be really! Andrew celebrated his 30th on the 24th and I turned 29 on the 28th. To celebrate, we gathered some friends at Lonestar’s in Kanata for dinner. Andrew didn’t know that there were a few surprises in store for him–first, Chris Pillsworth, an Ottawa magician, who put on a great show for us! Also, I ordered a special cake for him from the Cake Shop–3D Rabbit in the Hat cake! We still have a whole bottom layer frozen! Here are some photos from the party.
One of the special gifts Andrew got from Paul… 
How freakin adorable is this!? ALMOST too cute to eat…we still have a frozen layer!! Ordered from the Cake Shop in Ottawa
I scanned some childhood pictures of Andrew and compiled a little “30th” birthday album to pass around at the party 
Chris Pillsworth–did a great job!
He got the guests in on the action. Here’s Chuck trying to figure out just how Chris pulled the rings apart!! He thinks they’re broken!

I asked Chris before the party if he could make Andrew a special balloon top hat–as you can see, the sky’s the limit!! There had to be some element of birthday embarassment afterall
Andrew and Chris–I definitely did not know they’d both be wearing this shade of green!!
And last but not least, another shot of that sweet cake (pun intended!) and me and my old hubby
