Happy Birthday To You, Happy Birthday To You...


... Happy Birthday dear family, Happy Birthday to you!!!

Today is Brenton's birthday for a few more hours yet, and in addition to his birthday is that of all Lexi's pups.  It has been our joke, for some time, that Brenton had to share his birthday with our youngest pup, Bentley, as he has slowly grow into himself.  He's becoming a sweet little critter but it has taken some time to get him to where he is... Hence the idea to make a cake of Bentley for Brenton's birthday. 

Ironically, B had a text from one of the couples who bought a pup asking if they could stop by.  So, we were able to see the smallest of Lexi's litter today, who is now bigger than his brother Bentley.  These critters terrorized our newly planted yard while we ate birthday sweets, as the couple had also brought Brenton birthday surprises.  (Side Note:  You can tell how quickly Spring has come as the trees are almost full compared to the bare trees in previous pictures.)

Another ironic twist is the Josh Mc Dowell was in town speaking at The Cove this weekend.  One of my Cove supervisors was unable to take McDowell's crew to the airport, so I offered my husband as he had previously worked for McDowell...  It was an early morning, which many of you know we are not morning people, but B enjoyed catching up with a few past connections and christian mentors. 

On top of this craziness, Obama was in town this weekend.  Today he was having lunch with Billy Graham and heading out of town, so we had security and cops swarming the freeways and freeway ramps. 















Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband whom I love more than I did when we married.  I treasure our friendship and marriage, knowing I always have my best friend at my side.  He has been a wonderful friend, husband, provider, and support; as he always takes care of me first, wanting to make sure I am able to acheive my dreams and have purpose.
