happiness is...{the big 3-0.}

on tuesday, we celebrated my hubs turning 30.
wow, 30.
yeah i said it!


for however many years, that number just sounded old.
 as if life ends when you turn 30.
but when you get closer and closer to that age you realize
that its just another year gone by and if anything,
you begin to reflect on the life you've had, 
where you are
and where you're going.


i had the pleasure of 'scheming' a surprise party for 
my hubby (which i'm not sure why i did considering
the last time i threw one for him ~on his 25th~ he caught on)
and thought for sure i would have him fooled!


i gave him his present first thing in the morning
(so as not to expect any plans after work)
got a friend to take him out for drinks
(as the distraction/ride back home)
and the piece de resistance:


i planned it on a tuesday night!


alas despite my foiled plans, i think he
still managed to have a good time :)


here is a snapshot of my love through the years:

in 30 years, you've grown from a son, to a brother,
a friend, a husband and probably most importantly:
a father.


happy birthday love, may this just be the beginning of 
a fabulous life. xo
