Happy 38th Birthday, Robert!

We started celebrating August 1st for this guy!

Around here August 13th is a very special day, so we start the celebration early.

He reports that he has had his eye on this for years, so he was very excited to finally get it with the help of lots of gift cards!
How we adore him.
Headed out to dinner at his favorite (and my) spot...Trulucks!



 That Maddie knows how to make you feel special...and that she did.  Daddy has gotten lots and lots of birthday snuggles this month.
She has said a thousand times..."whatever Daddy wants, it's his birthday month!"

This right here sums out how we feel about him around here. 



No birthday is complete without a little sweetness.
Good helper he has!

Madelyn worked on so many crafts for Daddy all month.

Sunday Snuggles. 

 This girl knows how to throw a birthday party!  She made appetizers and set the table out just perfectly for him.  


We are so blessed for another year with Robert.  We are grateful for his love, support and constant work for our little family.  
And there is another girl around here that adores him as well...


 Here is to many sunny year ahead, my love!







A little throw back...


Madelyn's First Week of First Grade -- 2019

We made it!  First week of First Grade was a success.

Meet the teacher.
Yeah, mom fail here.  Not ONE picture.  But she loved her Ms. Wilhelmson.  She is not a new teacher, but new to Shady Grove.  Maddie loved her immediately, whew, that will help!

First Day of School
Robert and I took Maddie to school that day and picked her up.  It was a rainy day, but full of sunshine for sure.  
What a blessing to watch her grow.  A blessing I never take for granted. 





New year...new back pack!










Rainy day won't hide our sunshine!
