Blu's Birthday Party!

Tomorrow is Blu's 32nd birthday!!! It always seems that it's hard to make birthdays special in Zambia, when our family isn't there, so it was SO fun tonight to host a birthday bash to celebrate! We were missing quite a few, but we had a great time (and some yummy brisket!!) Tomorrow we have a fun surprise planned with the kids to celebrate even more!

I threw him a Duck Dynasty party (thanks Larry - we are addicts..)

Awesome cake!

I got him 3 Duck Dynasty books!

My parents got him a $100 gift card!

Blu will tell everyone that what he misses most about the USA is Chick-Fil-A, so Shade & Caity got him a gift card!

In Zambia, Blu is always mistaken for the wrestler John Cena, so I got him this as a gag gift...

It turns out he LOVED it and it provided quite the party entertainment! Boys will be boys...even at 32!

Our kids always love giving special birthday gifts - Caedmon made Blu this man out of boxes!

Cambree colored a picture that said "You're the best dad ever" but it looked like "You're the best dud ever!" :)

Cason gave him this special dinosaur - it was so sweet! He kept saying, "You can have it! It's yours!!"

Hmm...a wooden boat..

It turns out Blu's parents are sending us on a cruise for our birthday & Christmas presents!

It was a great night of food, fun, & family!
