Happy Birthday Dada!

Brian was able to take some vacation time this past week which allowed for many birthday events for him! On Saturday night we went on a tour of the Surly brewery which was really cool! We each got to pick 5 beers to taste and while we were tasting the owner told us his story of how Surly came to be. He also walked us through their brewing process and did a little Q & A session.


On Sunday, Brian's actual birthday, we went out to breakfast, grilled some ribs and corn for dinner, and had his favorite - jello birthday cake!


Finally, on Monday we sent both kids to daycare and took our friends, Jake and Debbie's, kayaks out on the chain of lakes. We had a couple of detours on our way from Brownie lake to Calhoun due to some rain and even were forced out of the water for a couple hours due to lightening, but still had a lot of fun!
