Phil’s 30th Birthday
Posted on 02. Jun, 2008 by Shanna Gons in Birthday, Pictures
On May 21st my wonderful husband turned 30!!! I wanted to do something big and exciting, but Phil doesn’t like to be the center of attention and prefers quiet/intimate celebrations—so we opted for some low-key celebrating. 🙂 We had such a special time together. Since his birthday was during the week, we thought we’d do a little celebrating on the day, and then a little on the weekend. (We like to celebrate special occasions as many times as possible! 😉 On his birthday, we got some pizza, had some oatmeal cake (his favorite), opened presents, and just spent the evening relaxing together. (We don’t usually spend much time together during the week after work, so if was fun!)
On Saturday, we played tennis together in the afternoon. It was a beautiful day, and we really enjoyed ourselves. Unfortunately, we felt pretty exhausted when we finished. I had made dinner reservations to a nice restaurant for the evening. The restaurant was on the marina, and the view was beautiful. After dinner, we walked around for a bit on the boardwalk outside the restaurant. We just enjoyed a nice romantic date together. (We should have brought our cameras!) I am so thankful for my sweet, sweet husband. With each day the Lord gives us together, my love and adoration for Phil grows deeper and deeper. The Lord has blessed me more abundantly than I could imagine, and I pray the Lord graciously gives Phil many, many more years to serve Him!
