Brian and the BIG 3-0

Brian turned 30 on New Years Eve. We celebrated his birthday for four days and it was great. We were so fortunate to have our wonderful friends come from Sacramento and San Diego to help celebrate with us. On Brian's actual birthday we went to dinner with some friends and played The Office board game laughing the entire time. Until Kali woke up and decided to regurgitate her dinner on me. So right before ringing in 2009, I was washing out puke in my hair. That was fun. Poor Kali.
Our friends came in the next day and we had 7 house guests. Fortunately, our neighbor's let us use their empty house to sleep some of them. We hung out at the house on Friday night and reminisced the good ole days while watching Spaceballs and Three Amigos. Saturday we went to dinner, hung out in VIP at Cherry Nightclub at Red Rock Casino. We danced till our legs fell off and watched America's Best Dance Crew winners put on a show. The night ended at VIP in Voo Doo Lounge at the Rio. It has an amazing view of the strip from the balcony, but it was very cold so we took pics and went back inside where we did more dancing. Around 3am we decided to call it a night, or morning. Let me tell you, staying up till 4 am is a lot different now then it was in our 20's. It took us a few days to recover from our lack of sleep.
We are very blessed to have our circle of friends who will put their life on hold to come out for major events. Thanks to Mark, Mike, Dave, the Howards, Flewellyns, Virgil & Elise, and Erin & Mike for making the long journey out here to celebrate with us. Also, thanks to the Brownings, Mundts, Smiths, and Harber's for hanging out with us too. We love you all! Enjoy all the photos, there are a lot.
