Happy Birthday, Sweet Husband

Happy Birthday to my sweet husband! Nora and I just adore you and can't wait to celebrate your big day tonight! While I have a bit of time, I thought that I would list just a few reasons why I love, love my husband:

• Mark is a great husband and puts up with me like no one else would do! (I am sure that he will nod his head while reading this one!)
• Mark is the BEST father, not only to our baby girl, but to those big girls who he just loves and adores unconditionally.
• Mark is completely genuine. One of the first things that I thought about him is still so true today.
• Mark is a loyal and dependable friend - those are hard to come by...
• Mark makes me laugh - especially with his smooth dance moves!
• Mark is a good son (and son-in-law too according to my mom). He adores all of his family and wishes that we lived closer to everyone.
  
• Mark is smart - especially with numbers - thank goodness!
• Mark is a Christian man and our spiritual leader. I love his insight on different passages in the Bible and the way that he keeps us focused on where we need to be - depending entirely on God.
• Mark has a beautiful voice. I'll never forgot how beautifully he sang at my daddy's memorial service. It still makes me cry to think about it.

I could go on and on, but he's a humble kind of guy and I want him to stay that way! :)

Here are a couple of pictures of Mark's birthday celebration from Sunday at the Ogle's house. Swimming, pizza and cake with our family - it doesn't get much better than that!




Nora and I are looking forward to more fun tonight! Happy Birthday Mark! We love you!
