happy birthday, kell!


Happy birthday to my sweet husband!

This year marks our 9th birthday together, and I wouldn’t want it any other way. If you know Kell, you probably know that this post will probably be his worst nightmare – he hates being the center of attention, which frankly, is inevitable on your birthday. Still, I went on with my A to Z list in hopes he’ll forgive me later.

Kell A to Z

Blizzards at Dairy Queen – no chocolate sauce

Impeccable driver

Karate Kid (“Sweep the leg!”)
Loyal friend
