AJ turned 30!!

In July, AJ said good bye to his 20's and joined a lot of us already in our 30's!  He was surprised by family and friends the weekend before his birthday - we started the evening at Mother's Brewery and did their tour of the facility and tasting of several beers!  We then went down the street to the Springfield Cardinal game and sat in the Redbird Roost where we had unlimited food and soft drinks through the game.  The Cardinals won which made the game even better!  We then headed off to Andy's Frozen Custard to finish the night off right!  I unfortunately have no pictures of the night :(  I do believe he had a fantastic time and was surprised by all the people involved - Butch, Joyce, Ali, Brian and Adrienne came in from Ste. Genevieve, his aunt and uncle came up from Kimberling City, and we were joined by lots of friends from Springfield!  Thanks to all who came out!
AJ had one more surprise to come - we went to St. Louis before our trip to Tennessee and went to the Gateway Grizzlies game with a lot of our Maryville friends.  To his amazement he was to throw out a first pitch!  He was a little upset with me that I hadn't been making him toss a ball in the previous weeks and let him go to the game in flip-flops!  He did great though :)


We had a great time hanging out with our friends at the game and letting the kids run amok at the big playground.  We didn't really get to watch much of the game, but I think everyone had fun!

 Waiting to throw out the ball!
 Watching Daddy!

 Big slide!

 Concentrating hard to get that big hit!!
