On July 21st, my sexy man turned the BIG 40! He said he didn't want a party, but I knew better and planned a surprise! Matt and Spencer share a birthday, so most of "the day" was spent ignoring Matt and celebrating with Spencer.
Matt thought we were going to McCormick and Schmick's (his favorite restaurant) with just the Hazens. When we walked up the stairs, there was a room set up just for him and all his friends there! They were awesome and started singing Happy Birthday...Matt was SO RED-and not just from his sunburn.
I love this man!
Tammi brought some lovely eyewear for Matt sport on his big day
The highlight of the night was Marcus "roasting" Matt!
