22 SWEET years!

These are a few of my most favorite SWEETS:








Thank you for 22 SWEET years!


Things that make Eric sweet:
Resourceful, humble, good daddy, quirky sense-of-humor, flexibility, sensitivity, good listener (at least you try to be when there is no football or basketball on TV), good conversationalist, factual knowledge, commitment, loyalty, your thirst for righteousness! You are my best friend!

Shiny Pink Birthdays & Daughters

The Birthday Celebration

Turning 18 apparently means an entire month of celebration. Caitlin's friends threw her a surprise birthday bash earlier this month. She shared a birthday song at home with her father and enjoyed her very own birthday cheesecake, at her request. Her uncles and father dropped by her school to surprise her with flowers and of course, PINK cupcakes the day before her actual birthday. She was kidnapped for a breakfast feast by more friends at 5:30 AM the morning of her birthday. She opened many presents from family and friends. Her car was decorated, flowers delivered to our home, and a dinner with her family that night! I guess it was a great day, week, or month to turn 18!












Happy Birthday to my Shinky Pink Caitlin! I cannot believe that you are 18 years old. You are my own little bundle of shiny, pink joy and a blessing in my life. When you were but two years old, I asked you what you wanted to be for Halloween, your response was, "shiny, pink!" That is still you today, 18 and shining your pink joy for everyone to see! I love you!

What a beautiful dancer, daughter, and young woman you have become!


Full of talent, dreams, enthusiasm and beauty!

My shiny, pink, bundle of joy!

You have the heart of a dancer, full of passion and love. You are disciplined, strong, creative, motivated, reliable, detail oriented and always strive for perfection and improvement. You have a permanent smile and share your passion with those who watch you perform, all the qualities of a good dancer and daughter!

Happy Birthday Hubby

One of my favorite movie quotes comes from the movie, "Good Will Hunting." In the movie there is a scene where Dr. Sean Maguire, played by Robin Williams is telling Will Hunting, played by Matt Damon about his deceased wife. He says that "she was the pefect wife, not a perfect person, just perfect for him."

Last Friday was Eric's birthday. He turned 44. The celebration was not too eventful, just a good day spent with family and friends and eating yummy food. I made his favorite strawberry pie and he opened a few gifts. All day long I could not help thinking how perfect he was! He is the perfect husband, not "perfect" by a long shot, but perfect for me!


HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY PERFECT HUBBY!
