Emmy's 30th Birthday
It's official, I turned 30 today. I had a wonderful birthday weekend in Grand Rapids. We came down Friday and that night Brandon took me out to Bonefish Grill, just the two of us! Saturday morning, Grandma, Papa, Grandma Glass, Gari Lee, Chris, Paige and our family went to a pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins, feed the animals and enjoy cider and donuts. We had so much fun, the girls wanted every pumpkin out there! We then had a relaxed afternoon and Brandon told me we were leaving around 4:45 to go get an appetizer, then heading somewhere before dinner. He told me I had to bring my makeup and hair stuff, so of course I think we are going to get a massage. Well, after we ate, he didn't head towards the spa near the house, so I was completely thrown off. We were heading towards our sister-in-law's spa so I thought, ok we're going out there. He was telling me that the spa normally closes at 4pm, (it's now 6), but Amy kept the spa open for us because they had a bachelorette party in there for services as well. So we walk into the spa and Shelly who works with Brandon's mom is at the front desk. At this point I have no clue what's going on and I say "Well, I'm just going to have to go with the flow". She takes Brandon and I back into the Bella room, the lounge area, and that's where our family and friends were there to surprise me! Brandon set up a wine tasting party, and oh my goodness, they did a great job, it was so much fun. They had 6 wines to taste, a port to taste, beer tasting, and delicious food. All of those who truly know me, know I love to eat, all of the food was incredible, and paired with the different wines, it was fantastic. It was so beautiful, and amazing, a lot of people put hard work into this, so thank you so much!! Sunday morning my parents had a brunch at their house before we left to come back home, I couldn't have asked for a better birthday!!!
