The 30th and 40th birthday celebration!

We had a fun time celebrating Jeff and Don's 30th and 40th birthdays at the Vine on the Coralville strip. We had reserved the upstairs and it worked very well. We had our own little area, a little game room, our own waitress and even our own bathroom! (although there was a little problem with the paper towel dispenser... my thumbs might still hurt!). Diane made two wonderful cakes - a brownie cheesecake and a 1/2 chocolate 1/2 white cake with a tigerhawk on it! Both were delicious!

Here is a pic of the boys doing the poses we know and love. Make sure you check out Diane's cakes in the picture.




I think the boys had a good birthday and everyone had fun. Afterwards we headed back to our place for a Cranium tournament, followed by a never ending Trivial Pursuit game. Poor Jeff - I will probably always remind him that alcohol CAN affect your ability to play Trivial Pursuit. He kept saying that night that either you know the answer or you don't - alcohol has nothing to do with it. Let's just say his answer to a question about an 'Arab nation' was Australia. The next day he admitted that maybe alcohol was hindering him....

Here's a pic from the Cranium game - having the guys do puppeteering is always fun.
