Today was Chad’s 24th birthday. It was a pretty low-key day but I think that was a welcome change since he spent his last two birthdays in Iraq. We celebrated by going out to dinner tonight… exciting, I know. Here are my beautiful boys today :) I love them. I was able to finally do something with Chad’s pictures and awards from the Marine Corps…. I went out and bought a million frames and made a big collage on the wall in our office. I hung some of his awards as well as some of his pictures from the CPFL football season….
I have a few more things to hang but I think it looks pretty good so far. Some of this stuff looks crooked in the pics but it must be the angle I was holding the camera. Also everytime we slam the front door ALL of the things hanging on the walls shift so I will be spending my whole life keeping that wall of pictures straight!!! Anyways…today was a good day for all of us. We both got callbacks about jobs we applied for so fingers crossed for us! Cole is growing like a weed and here are some cute ones of him from today … I love these!


















I love all of the photos. The back of Cole at the window is priceless. Chad must love his man cave now with all of the photos etc. You are so thoughtful and appreciative of him and his accomplishments. Good news for you on the job fronts. So happy you had a great birthday together. You deserve all the happiness in the world.Hugs to all.

ReplyDeleteHey Lauren! I am watching American Idol and just had to log-on here and tell you something. Although the hair is different, you remind me SOO much of Kara (the judge) on there. I knew she reminded me of someone I know and finally figured it out. It's something in the face =). I love her, too...so thats a great compliment. haha! Odd thought- I know. but I just had to tell you :)
