Brian & Dusty's Surpise 30th Birthday Party...

Macare & I have been planning our "Operation Dusty & Brian's 30th Birthday Surprise"...and we pulled it off without a hitch! The moment of the surprise above...

Surprise! Happy 30th Birthday Brian!!

What a great surprise! And to be able to celebrate with lots of friends and family too!!!

Macare & I had "man food" catered...pizza bread, wings, sliders...and chocolate fondue! yum!!

Then we all watched a video that Macare & I compiled for the guys! It was awesome!!

While the guys were busy distracting the guys at happy hour, the girls came over to help decorate the house!

Mom & Dad McClatchey helped Brian & Dusty ring in their 30th year!

And no 30th Birthday would be complete without a spartan helmet cake, for Brian the MSU Spartan fan!!

And the same would be true for Dusty...the OSU fan!!!

Happy 30th Birthday Brian & Dusty! We wish you all the best in this next decade of your life!! The best is yet to come!!!
