Aaron, Sarah and Austin!: Aaron's 30th Birthday
http://aaronandsarahk.blogspot.com/2010/10/aarons-30th-birthday.html
Aaron, Sarah and Austin! Thursday, October 21, 2010. On September 9, Aaron turned 30! We had a big party to celebrate him and the wonderful man that he is. Everyone was asked to dress in their best AK impression so there was a lot of blue, plaid and AK gear. We played "Minute-To-Win-It" games which held for some hilarious moments. I think Aaron felt appreciated by everyone who was able to come. He is ready to embark on his 30's! Posted by Aaron and Sarah. On the Road Again. Such a fun party!

To look back at how long my pen has been silent on this blog is startling. The time flew and yet it crept. So much change has happened in our lives. My Daddy is gone. We have a son! Life has cycled through. A death, then a birth. I was living each day in miserable agony. Thank you for following.Welcome back.
