sweet birthday boy

my sweet husband had his 24th birthday today. and, as we had a week-long sleepover with wendy and the boyz this week, they threw him an honorary birfday breakfast! man, they can party.

this was right before t-bone used an egg to test gravity and inertia. you can see him contemplating the drop here.

i just love the binky, superman jammies, and readi-wip! it's Travis through and through.

in my parent's magnificent backyard.

gassing up in san fran, we both got a kick out of the small irony found here. yes, this gas station is THE standard for comfort and convenience, boy howdy!

Malibu Grand Prix: it was THE windiest day ever, and what with the freeway a golf swing away, it wasn't the most peaceful game, but it was great fun.

heading home on highway one...a birthday for joe wouldn't be complete without a drive on the 1.

Joe also surprised me for his birthday and drove us to IKEA. it's a delicious world in there.

honey, i delighted in your day. i was honored to swing the clubs, play air hockey, buy lamps, eat organic strawberries, and drive the coast with you. i pray the Lord to give us many, many more May 15th's. i love you forever.
