Jeff's 30th (!!!!!) Birthday Celebration! Canada eh?!

It all started when last year I decided to plan something fun for Jeff's big 3-0.. He didn't want a party, so I decided to plan a trip. Jeff loves hockey so I planned a trip to Toronto Canada for him to see the NHL Hall of Fame. After talking it over with Dede, we decided that we would all take the trip together. Fast forward to the thursday before Jeff's birthday.. I convinced him to make it a long weekend, we would both take off Friday- Monday, and take some day trips through out the weekend. I told him his parents said they would like to take us out to dinner on Thursday night. Without him knowing I had packed both of our bags, and his mom had already picked them up earlier in the day! Right before we were "heading out to dinner" I asked him to open a birthday card I had got for him... inside it said something to the effect of, 'I know your birthday isn't until Sunday, but the party starts right here, right now! We are going to Toronto Canada!' The look on his face was shock, and confusion... He was like are you for real?! I have included a couple of pics of him opening his card, and one of him in the car, still at his 'I can't believe this is happening' stage.. The rest of the pics are from through out the trip. We also stopped in Niagra Falls for a night, which was a blast, I hadn't ever been there before, and it was beautiful!

Ready to take the trip!!

Downtown Toronto, off to the right is the Hard Rock Cafe guitar

The view from our hotel rooom

The face Jeff would make at me, whenever I would look over during our trip.. it was a mixture of cute and funny..

He could never take a good picture of me.. so I tried to myself.. haha

Dinner at Wayne Gretzky's

There was a bench made completely out of hockey sticks!!

It's a bit dark, because it's easier to not blink with the flash off!

This is the only pic I have from the NHL Hall of Fame, since Jeff and Steve went there, and Dede and I went SHOPPING!!!

On our way to the boat tour....

Waiting for the tour to start... This building is made from real gold on the outside, it's sooo cool!!
The CN Tower

Mighty, Mighty Sailors!

This was at the CN Tower, you could walk right up to it! I didn't, I used Zoom.. I am not trying to get bit!

This was actually taken at night, but came out pretty nice!! (The one above, and below)

We went to a Wax Museum, it wasn't as impressive as I thought it would be.. but it was still fun!

This was our view as we were on the bridge to leave Canada!

It was so nice to get away, however, we were really excited to get home and pick up Ruger! (Especially since Jeff didn't realize we were leaving him for a whole weekend!)
