Happy 40th Birthday Bill!

March 18
Happy 40th Birthday Bill! I absolutely adore my husband so a day to celebrate him is the BEST!  It started with a fun breakfast in which Addison even made little cards for each of the foods.  Then we quickly moved on to gifts...I could NOT wait!  There were 10 gifts...one for each place that Bill has lived in the last 40 years.  Hawaii, Fort Wayne, Annapolis, Hawaii, Washington, California, Italy, Omaha, Fairfax and California.  And then there was a bonus gift....that was the one that took the help of LOTS of others.  I was able to make a book of the last 40 years.  It was so much fun to get pictures that I had never seen before.  Thanks to all that helped!  It turned out awesome!


 The first gift was a ukulele...it is what he wanted! Ukulele music just makes people happy!  
 Book for Fort Wayne....his first job was at the library!



 Addison's beautiful food cards!  She made them all by herself! 
 Bill has one of the most amazing smiles EVER....it was one of the first things I noticed about him!  I am so lucky to call him mine! 
 Torrey Pines....at the beach for a picnic.  We didn't get a chance to hike so we will have to go back another time! 

So, I was so happy that Bill was home for his birthday....however, it wasn't the happiest day ever.  As we were finishing up a great soccer game we found out that my Grandma had passed away.  So unfortunately it really changed the way the day went.  I had planned a dinner out with just the two of us...and we went...but it wasn't what we wanted....we had a glass of wine, left and ate tacos from a truck down the street.  I can plan a do-over.  Bill is 40 for the whole year right?
