Jenelle and I decided that since the "boys" (Dannnon and Tyler) would be together this summer, and their 30th birthday was soon (Sept. 28th) then we should throw a birthday party for them. But we made it even better with a Surprise Birthday Party!!! We have been planning this for almost a year now, and it was a HUGE relief to have it happen. It was great, and lots of people came to celebrate with us. I have to say a HUGE Thank You to our family would helped us a TON! We really couldn't have done this without your help and ideas. Thanks! :)
We tried to get some of Tyler and Dannon's friends from growing up to come. This is Josh Price, he lives in New York, but him and his family were in Utah this summer. So he came the night before the party, since the night of the party he was leaving. Tyler and Dannon loved catching up with him. (don't you think Dannon and Tyler truely look like twins here?!?!)
The cake for their early birthday. :) 
The dessert table, and yes! there is a pig cake there! Jenelle made this from scratch!!! AMAZING, right?!?! It looked so good, and tasted great. 
One more good view of the pig. It isn't a true Luau without a pig roasting with an apple in it's mouth. :) That was the theme of the party by the way...Hawaiian Luau.
Ally standing at the door welcoming our guests. She helped get the leis on everyone with hairclips for girls and fans for everyone. We thought it would be a hot summer evening outside. Well there were thunderstorms, and it was only like 60 degrees outside!!!! So we spent most of the time inside.
Haylee helping getting the food on. Haylee was a BIG help, we stored all decorations and food at her house down the street, so then the boys wouldn't see what we were up to.
Yummy Hawaiian food!!! :) Shrimp, pulled pork, and fruit kabobs.
Kids eating outside. 
Alee and Ashley having a great time. :) 
SURPRISE!!! They look it don't they? :) They weren't quite sure who the party was for, since their birthday isn't until next month, but they loved it. 
Getting ready to blow out the candles.

Make a wish!
The next morning. They got up so they could play Rail Baron before church.
