{El's Rockin' Surprise Birthday Bash}

This past Saturday we celebrated the 40th birthday of one of our best friends. He's Ty's "BFF" and he was also the best man in our wedding. His girlfriend Amanda planned the whole surprise and hosted the party at her house. Being that it was a couple weeks after his actual birthday, the surprise was a huge success! Amanda made arrangements for El's family and friends to drive out from Tucson, and the party was complete with massive quantities of amazing food, great music, good times {and a Rocker Theme.}

Thanks to Amanda for being a rockin' hostest... and a fine chef. ;p
And -- El, we hope you have a fantastic 40th year!!

The fabulous hostess

The cake was an exact replica of El's bass

They are just tooo cute together. 

This was the first time I had met El's parents, and oh. my. gosh. They are so cute and sweet!! 

El's mother was wearing this on the back of her jacket. "Autumn's End" is El's band. 

It makes me proud to see my husband's art in other people's houses. :)

This is a framed photo in Amanda's house... I thought it was too awesome to not take a picture of it!
