The Big 4-0!

Eric is 40. We celebrated BIG this year in honor of him.  He is such a deserving man.  A loving husband who is always trying to love me better, a fun daddy who is pouring his life into his kids, and a selfless friend who makes himself available to talk, text, or hang out as his friends need him.  I wouldn't have been able to pull off this party without the help of Mrs. Nadean and Dr. Blevins.  Ever since I told Mrs. Nadean about my idea, she ran with it ... calling me when she found any "mustache" themed item while shopping.  She did an AMAZING job with the food (BBQ sandwiches, mashed potato bar, baked beans, and cole slaw) as well as with two delicious cakes and GALLONS of sweet tea.  When I called Dr. Blevins about having a party at his old office, he was so helpful and the office manager at the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Center were SO easy to work with.  We had a blast.  About 70 of Eric's closest friends came out to celebrate with us ... including all of his family (minus Michael) and all of my family.  Here are some pics:

 I love him.
