Holy Moly Chad's 25!!

That's right...you heard it...Chad's 25!!!

I met my sweet husband at our sorority/fraternity toga swap when we were only 18. One year later, we were married with a baby on the way. When Turner came into our world we both had to grow up and grow up fast! We did, and we did it together. For the past five years I've watched my husband turn into such a wonderful man. He's such a wonderful leader and he loves God and he loves the three of us SO much. God couldn't have paired me with a better match and Turner and Anna Cate couldn't have a more wonderful daddy! Chad is my very best friend, he'll never know how thankful I am for him. Happy Birthday Chaddy!

We didn't really do anything too exciting for Chad's birthday today. We did come home from church to a freshly mowed yard, thanks to our sweet neighbors Josh and Alisha. They're wonderful and we are so thankful God put them right next door! They also made Chad a birthday dinner. We had fresh fish, cheese grits, baked beans, and french fries. It was delicious...we all ate way too much (including Anna Cate). I also made Chad his very favorite dessert...lemon ice box pie. Yeah, I'm really good at it... it was SO good...you should be jealous! I also suprised Chad with tickets to go see Willie Nelson and B.B. King at The Wharf. That should be super fun, especially since we're going with Becky, Brandon, Molly, and Brett. I'm sure I'll write something about that later!

Here are some pics from today....

Josh, our wonderful neighbor.

Rachel - I didn't know you made Lemon Ice Box Pie - I thought I was the only one in the family that made it. FYI - Ga-Ga, Tommy, and my Daddy LOVE it. I normally make it for father's day for all of them. Have a great day.
