Dear Hank,

Today we've been married four years and I love you more than I did the day I said, "I Do". You have been a wonderful husband and a fantastic father... and I feel so blessed to say that you are MY husband. I prayed to meet someone like you and the Lord truly heard my prayers and blessed ME with YOU. You are my very best friend and I look forward to many more years together... watching our babies grow.... turn into "people" (yuck)... and hopefully, one day, sharing grandchildren together. Maybe we'll be the old couple that others see sitting on the front porch swing holding hands... and they even kind-of look alike (not so sure about that part). Anyway... thank you for being the best husband ever and I love you with all my heart.

With that being said..... could you please forgive me for this???.......

And this?...

And.... this?

I promise that it did not "sit" in the car.... I had the air on FULL blast. I mean, the cupcakes that Grady and I ate didn't look like this... even though we ate immediately... but who's being so picky on timing. And.... the icing is your favorite part anyway... so it will taste the same at least?? I'm sorry. We are supposed to be celebrating how we love each other anyway... not cake. Right?... Right?...

P.S. I love you.

Loves water.... anywhere...

The weather has been so nasty lately and to keep Grady occupied for a short amount of time I let him play in the hot tub. I dump all of his toys in there, add bubbles and turn on the jet... and still... he's mostly obsessed with playing with the faucet and literally shooting water all the way across the bathroom! He cracks me up.....

And he's also obsessed with drinking from faucets or water hoses.... maybe it's a "boy thing"??

First Haircut...

Grady got his first haircut yesterday. He was so sweet and well behaved. He only got a little "trim", but nothing tames those curls!!!!

Kitchen Countertops

Our granite was installed last week and it looks great! Hank got our water lines hooked up to the refrigerator, installed our sink fixtures, garbage disposal, dishwasher, etc. The kitchen is finally fully functional!! We're currently trying to get our tile guy scheduled to do our backsplash... and after we move in, we'll finish the crown moulding, baseboards, window trim and recessed lighting. We're getting closer!!! :)
