Happy Birthday Brad!!!

Happy Birthday Brad!!!!

Out of all the blessings the Lord has given me, Brad is certainly one of the best! I am so privileged to share life with him and thankful for the 28+ years we've had together as husband and wife. The Lord certainly knew what He was doing when he brought us together 31 years ago.

I've always appreciated Brad's desire to honor the Lord, his integrity of spirit and godly character. He is very dedicated to the relationships the Lord has given him; as a husband, father, son, brother and friend. I've appreciated his steadfastness of purpose and the way he puts his family first. Although he has had short seasons of time when he has had to put in more time in "at the office" than he would like, for the most part, Brad established early in his career the habit of drawing strong boundaries. He makes it a priority to make sure he was home and involved with the girls and I. He has always taken seriously the job of providing for his family. I can not even describe the amount of appreciation I have for his support, encouragement and provision that has allowed me to stay at home and raise our family and focus on homemaking endeavors. Through example, action and deed, he continues to teach our girls what a great husband looks like. (And yep...I have to admit, he's even more of a Hottie now than the day I married him!! ;-) We are very blessed.

So, to my incredible husband, my best friend, and my partner for life!!

...HAPPY BIRTHDAY HONEY!!!

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at our favorite restaurant!!!

our own children's baby pictures.
