Happy 32nd birthday, Gregory!

We love celebrating Gregory!  This year, we made it a two-day celebration, in order to get two good meals in.  This guy loves to eat! :)

First, we had an impromptu dance party.


Then we had a roast leg of lamb.

And a blueberry cheesecake pie for dessert.  Yummm!
Nathanael helped open cards and gifts.

On the ACTUAL day, I arranged for care for Nathanael in the evening, and we went out on a date!!!  Gregory chose to eat at Friday's, and it was delicious!  He ordered a steak, something we haven't had since living in the States.  We love you, Gregory!!!
