The BIG 2-5!



I thought I should say a few nice things about my sweet husband. But only because today he turned the BIG 2-5!!! A quarter of a century, guys...HE'S OLD:) No, I am only kidding. Its not hard to say nice things about him...

  1. He is an amazing father.
  2. He loves my family (even with all of our craziness!)
  3. He is always doing things for me.
  4. He is a hard worker.
  5. He never gives up.
  6. He knows how to calm me down and to help me think clearly :) (An important one...it comes with the red hair!)
  7. He helps make dinner and take care of things around the house while I go to never-ending school.
  8. He is so easy going and always goes along with whatever.
  9. He is so cheerful, even in the wee hours of dawn. (not so fun, but yes..I am still grateful..who wants 2 grumps?!)
  10. He is always optimistic.
  11. He likes to be crazy and weird with me. (Its quite entertaining, let me tell you!)
  12. He is SO handsome.
  13. He is always so sensitive to my feelings.
  14. He is "in touch with his feminine side" now don't go thinking thats a mean thing to say because for all of you women out there that have a hubby of the same sort, it only means that he enjoys similar activities as I do. Whether or not he really does is another matter, at least he puts on a good face :) Am I digging myself in a hole?
  15. He is a worthy priesthood holder.
  16. He reminds us to have family prayer and to read the scriptures together as a family often.
  17. He is always ready and willing to attend church every week.
  18. He magnifies every calling he receives.
  19. He is a good missionary.
  20. He is SO fun.
  21. He is good at what he does (computer programming for those that don't know)
  22. He is a friend to all.
  23. He is not afraid to stand for what he believes in.
  24. He is always leaving little notes around the house for me, and for about 2 years straight he had a little tradition of giving me "Tuesday notes" every week. This all started even before we were engaged.
  25. Did I mention that he is incredibly good looking ;)
I know I made the right decision in marrying him and have enjoyed every minute of our almost 3 years of marriage. He is an amazing father and a wonderful husband who only thinks of others and supports us 100%. I am glad I have him for eternity and I know that the covenants we made in the temple when we were sealed are true and everlasting. And in case you haven't guessed, those are 25 things one for each year of his life! Happy Birthday Eric!!

Wow, it's crazy you two have been married for almost three years! I still have yet to meet him...and it's been WAY too long since I've even seen YOU! It was sweet to read this tribute to him though. And no, I don't think you dug yourself into a hole!! ;)

I didn't realize you two have been married about as long as me and Glen. We'll be at 3 years October 1st. When is your anniversary.
I'm so glad you got a good guy for a husband. :) Happy birthday to Eric.
