The Big 3-0!

June 15 was a very big day in the Hollimon household. It was Matthew's 30th birthday!!! The Saturday before his birthday, I had told Matthew that the director of my office was having a pool party so we needed to leave around 2 to make it there in time. Two o'clock rolls around and our doorbell rings. Matthew goes to the door to answer it and there are three gift-wrapped packages sitting on our front porch. He looks at the packages and starts gathering them up (at this point he's starting to get a little confused). Then SURPRISE!!!! His parents walk around the corner! Matthew's parents and I had been planning to surprise him for his birthday with a visit from them! It was a great surprise and Matthew had no idea they were coming down. We just sat around and visited and then we ended up driving around town and found a fruit stand on the side of the road. We stopped by and picked up a watermelon, some peaches and two canteloupe. It was all delicious. We fixed a great dinner and Matthew's parents had brought down a wonderful cake. It was a white cake with a raspberry filling with fresh fruit on top. It was delicious! So happy 30th birthday to my hubby!
