he's the big 4-0
Today's my sweeties birthday... and his twin sisters of course! Last night we were able to get out without the kids because we volunteered to work the beer tent at the rodeo for HTC {the kids' school}. We treat any volunteer opportunity as a chance that we have to get out, kid-less & enjoy ourselves. I know... lame. Anyway we had fun. Today we've just been taking it easy hanging with the family around home & I made him a nice supper of steak, mashed cheesy potatoes, broccoli & cherry crisp. It's been an awesome day of talking on the porch & Dan just doing whatever he wanted to do {which I guess was mowing the lawn}. The guy doesn't ask for much, but we treated him to a new cool car t shirt, a big fountain mountain dew from hy-vee gas & a big container of Whoppers! But, next weekend I'm planning a nice bbq with friends & family at our house, so we'll be able to celebrate for sure!
Funny, while we were talking this morning... we met when Dan was 20. Yes, it is crazy to think that I've known him half his life.... I've loved most every moment of the time I've spent with you Dan & if it's possible, I think you've gotten better with age :) I'm especially proud of all the great things you've accomplished that we dreamed of, but never imagined could come to reality. You're a great man, that's for sure & a great daddy too!
We Love you & hope you enjoyed your birthday!
*ps* we want to send big birthday wishes to Donna {Dan's twin sister} today as well! We hope you enjoyed your birthday too! Can't wait to see you soon! Love you :)
