One year ago today, we were living it up with our friends, The Kurths, in sunny Califorina. But now, neither family can imagine packing up four kids and traveling cross-county, so we settled for a calm day at church and home to celebrate. We did manage a grown-up night-out party on Friday night, complete with staying out until past midnight! But it seems fitting to ring in the new decade in the place that we love best, playing with our girls, and enjoying a dinner of scallops, basmati rice, broccoli, cake, and of course, cheerios. (There's always a baby in the house!)
And it wouldn't be a birthday celebration without taking the chance to say how grateful we are to our husband/daddy. Jonathan's love and devotion to his family is apparent to anyone who knows him, and we learn more from him and his example every day. So, even though our waiter at the birthday party didn't know we were together the other night until we asked for the check, I can't imagine any part of my life without him. We love you, birthday boy!
(And by the way, the cool new place to be is our backyard, complete with a firepit!)

Happy Birthday Jonathan! Seems so long ago that we were traipsing all over Milwaukee (in borrowed shoes from Heidi that made my feet bleed!) and ending up at Senor Frog's for dinner. :
