cinco de mike-o

My adoring husband turned 30 (what??).  When I met him he was 20 ... where is time going??  Aside from being a heartfelt, honest, truly wonderful husband and best friend, he is also those things (and many, many more) to our beautiful son.  Sometimes I have to remind myself how lucky I am.  These past 9.5 years have flown by and I can only imagine what the next 10 have in store.  I love you, B.  And as is spelled out in Gaelic on his arm, eternity (truly) is not enough.

Some recent recaps of our moments together.  Clearly Declyn is much younger in the middle picture, but his facial expression says it all -- he is amazed at / in awe of his dad, just as we all are.

We went hiking in Great Falls and Dec kept looking up, so I decided to do the same.  It's amazing to see the world in a little ones eyes -- they see the beautiful things in life we sometimes forget are there.

Being a little  independent goober. 

Top right -- can you feel the love?

Along with him turning 30, obviously many of his friends did as well.  Every year our good friend Ben has a Cinco de Ben-o party (his birthday is May 6) so this year him, Drew (whose birthday is May 4) and Mike had a combined Three Amigos turn 30.  I will have to hunt for some pictures from friends ... between chasing Declyn and keeping Mike standing upright (kidding. sort of.) I forgot to take any.
