Travis' birthday

My young at heart, fun-loving husband celebrated a milestone birthday on Thursday.  Trav turned the big 4-0.  I had all these grand intentions of throwing him a surprise party or heading out of town to somewhere on the coast, but because of my kidney surgery I had to come up with something on a smaller scale. After racking my brain about what would be fun for the birthday boy, I came up with a surprise day on a boat for my lake-loving man.  He cleared his schedule for the whole day {yippee} and I arranged Shugs to keep the kiddos.  After praying for sunshine and renting a boat, I kidnapped and blindfolded Travis.  He had no idea what I had schemed.
I packed bathing suits, sunscreen, and 3 coolers full.  Even though we only ventured a few minutes down the road, we felt our responsibilities drift away the faster and farther the boat left the dock.  I think a day of sun and fun was what we both needed.

I think both of us could cruise around all day long.  We circled the lake and even stopped by to check on things at home. . .




{Haha. . . just kidding.  It's fun to dream though.}




Happy Birthday to my best friend and husband.  I loved our day together and I look forward to many more birthdays with you.  You are the best daddy to our children and it's a joy watching you with them.



There is no one like you and I love you lots!
