THE BIG 3 0 !

Today is GREG"S 30th Birthday! I think I'm more excited than he is. I don't know if it's the fact that 30 is a pretty big deal or more that I love that we are "growing up" together . When we met I was 18 and he was 22, Now he's 30! I don't know- it's just special to me and I guess I feel like we've always been too young. Maybe now that he's 30 We'll get a little more r-e-s-p-e-c-t! Even though everyone still says he looks like a teenager-

There are many things I love about Greg, Here are 30 of them in no particular order:

1.He shovels the driveway and likes it!
2.He loves the seasons and is very happy here, but He wants to try out new places and not get too settled anywhere.

3.He is very adventerous and loves being active.
4.He tries to teach his friends how to Mountain Bike so he can have buddies to go with.

5.He chose me!
6.He's so hot he could model, but he swears he doesn't know it!

7. He's so helpful, I still remember him paceing at night with new born Brody so I could get some sleep.
8.He brings balance to my life and helps me to see a different point of view. He is a great listener when I need someone to talk to.
9.AgaIn he loves sports and he is really good at all of them. Even if it's his first time... It's kind of not fair.
10.He'll try almost anything, He's gone scuba diving, water rafting and even sky diving!- CRAZY, That was not with me.
11. He is such a sweet Daddy. It's been fun to see the transition from no kids to kids. The boys truly adore him!
12.He makes some pretty cute boys too, if I may say so-

13.Even When things are hard he keeps hanging on.
14.He is a very dedicated worker and always dose his best in any job.

15. Education is important to him. He still talks about going back for his MBA.
16. I admire his passion and ability to prioritze to get things done.
17. He is a computer geek.
18. He's given both of our boys computers before they were one. (They were free from his work, but our boys see how much he likes them and want to be just like Daddy).

19. He loves to play rough with the boys. They are so happy when they can tackle and run crazy! But he has the softer side too and is very loving with them.
20.My favorite is when he reads them bedtime stories, too cute. I've even caught him singing to them!- It melts my heart.

21.He is so intelligent, sometimes too intelligent.
22.He loves to teach other people, at least when they are willing to learn.
23.He loves treats- Many nights he'll stop off at the store to pick up treats. I'm not always happy that he gets them - I don't need the extra temptation, but it makes me laugh that he dose it.
24.He let me teach him the joy of good food! One of my favorite stories is when he came out here for an interview, the first thing he told me about was this awesome restaurant they took him to, not the job offer, the food... He really is meant for me. :)
25.He can fix pretty much anything. He's teaching Brody how to also.
26. Even if he's never tried to make or fix something he'll try and usually dose an amazing job. He just installed a car stereo for the first time and it sounds great.

27.He tried to teach me to Mountain bike and was really sweet when I was scared and gave me confidence to go down the hills.
28.He is So patient with me. I could list at least thirty more things that he is patient about, but that would take WAY too long!

29.He loves to snuggle.
30. His eyes light up when the boys welcome him home each day.

I love you for these and So MANY more reasons. I hope you have a sepcial Birthday and know how great we think you are!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!
