Happy Birthday Bryce!!

Bryce turned 29 on August 29th. This was his golden birthday. We celebrated by going out with our friends Dave & Dawn. We somehow ended up going out to eat at my favorite restaurant, don't know how that happened ;). It was a Japanese steakhouse, yummy. We then went home and had Rhonda's carrot cake with the girls. Bryce has had this cake every year for his birthday, and it is delicious! If you make it, I recommend making it the day before so the flavor really sets in. Happy birthday Bryce!
