Happy Birthday Hector!


A few weeks ago, our friend Hector had his thirtieth birthday. Hector's wife Christy threw him a surprise party during our normal small group time. Thankfully, no one let the secret slip and Hector was really surprised. Little did he know that his friends were lying in wait to yell "Surprise"...or "Happy Birthday" We really didn't get that part coordinated too well before he showed up...oh well, he was sufficiently surprised! The guys played corn hole and wiffle ball while the girls chit chatted and played with the little ones.



Christy had ordered wings and several of the girls from our small group had coordinated on other food items. I made Hector and Christy some blondies when Zack and I took dinner to them after their sweet little boy was born, not knowing that Hector loved blondies. So, Christy had asked me to make Blondies for Hector's birthday as they are his favorite. They were, thankfully, a big hit. I also tried a new recipe for some raspberry key lime tartlets.



We are so blessed to have Hector as a friend and we cherish him and his family. They have been a huge blessing in our lives. Hector is a talented and caring guy who genuinely loves God and strives to have his relationship with God be evident in every aspect of his life....Happy Birthday Hector, we love you! ...welcome to old age! :) I look forward to seeing the amazing ways that God is going to use you in the years to come!


Hector is stylin...
Ha! He had his pants rolled up while he played wiffle ball and we didn't give him a chance to roll both pant legs down before we made him blow the candles of his cake out! :)
