I haven't blogged in a while...we've been so busy, I just haven't made the time. But, today was one of those days that I just had to brag about my wonderful husband, Travis. Sydney and Addyson were supposed to have an Easter egg hunt today in our neighborhood, but because of the storms it got cancelled. We weren't sure if it would be cancelled, though, b/c the storms had cleared up, so we went tot he clubhouse only to find a sign cancelling the event. Sydney was so incredibly sad about this. Travis, however, was a quick thinker. He rushed out of the car, and I purposefully took my time getting the girls out of the car. Meanwhile Travis had gotten chocolate eggs out of the pantry and run upstairs to stuff and hide plastic eggs all over the upstairs. By the time we got inside and got our shoes off and dinked around a little bit, Travis came downstairs and told Sydney that someone had snuck into our house and left something for her and Addyson. Sydney ran upstairs and was so excited that the Easter bunny had known her Easter egg hunt was cancelled and didn't want her to be sad, so he came and hid eggs for her. She was so excited and happy, and it just made my heart melt that Travis was so in tune with Sydney's feelings that he did that. I love you honey, and that was so sweet today.

Awww... I like #48! You are awesome, Travis!
What a sweet husband!!
You see the thing that Kate always fails to mention when she is bragging about me or something that I am, is I am those things because of her. Many of my friends would look at that list and think that she is crazy. She isn't, it's just I am that way because I want to do everything I can to make her life easier, and to make feel special all the time. I have become these things because of kate, not for Kate. She is awsome, she is the greatest wife ever for one reason, she is so understanding. She understands everything about me and it makes it easy to be her husband and to be the things that she wants me to be. I love you Kate, you are the best wife ever.
Aw babe, you are so sweet. I love you Travis.
