his birthday.

this year was a fun birthday. jared turned 25! a quarter of a century old, as he told himself all day. 


so handsome. :)we had a pretty stacked weekend which included celebrations at two new restaurants, (both scored big!)time with both friends and our families, which we felt very blessed by, and  some much needed alone time. the weather was gorgeous over his special weekend, so we made a point to break out our skates, and we weren't sorry!


my husband is the special-est thing in my life. this being the 5th birthday we celebrated together, and it only reminded me of how much more i love him every. single. year. 


enter some (sappy - be warned) reasons... 

- he makes a mean egg sandwich (don't judge me for that being #1, we like our eggs :)
- i know i always come before his work, even though he has to work a lot
- i know he works a lot because he is committed to his job and our family
- seeing him back in school reminds me just how hard of a worker he is
- he makes me laugh. plain and simple.
- he had tried many new foods for me over the past couple years - and is such a sport about it
- he warms up my freezing toes without complaining
- he doesn't complain
- i see him studying his Bible daily. he inspires me.
-  he kills spiders for me. and doesn't look down on me for leaving them under cups until he comes home.
- he does the dishes. and not just when he feels sorry for something. daily.
- he makes me smile when i think about him. that's new and i love it.
- i see him growing. and maturing. himself alone and with me - it's a wildly beautiful process that is drawing me to him even more.


HAPPY (belated) 25th BIRTHDAY TO MY BEST FRIEND. you are the sweetest, most genuine man i have ever known. i'm so blessed to be yours. :) here's to another growing year!
