Happy Birthday to Geoff!

Wow, it's been a few weeks!  It's been busy and crazy and stressful and amazing here at our simple home in paradise.

Today is Geoff's 33rd birthday and as everyone who knows Geoff would agree, I am so blessed and the luckiest girl in the world to be married to him (I can say these things because he won't read this blog post until it's too late ;)  It's been a crazy weekend with sick girls yesterday resulting in the canceling of our birthday date night out :( and the annual Primary Program at church (I serve with the kids in my church and once a year we practice with them for weeks so they can do the entire program for the entire congregation.  They sing and give talks and such and it's amazing and hilarious and sweet and I loved feeling the spirit of those amazing children and the love Heavenly Father and Jesus has for each of them and for each of us.  It went really well but all of us that serve in the primary are exhausted!)  Anyway, that made for a really busy morning and church block.  When we came home and had nap time we had a nice birthday dinner for Geoff and his favorite chocolate cake with fudge frosting-yum!  We all enjoyed that a lot, especially Aya!


It took a while but the girls finally found a birthday for Daddy that wasn't pink or a crown!



It's been fun celebrating Geoff with our little family but it's times like this that we really miss our extended families in Utah.  We thought of all of you today & wished you could've come over to have some cake with us.  Thanks for all of the calls, facebook messages, cards etc.  Geoff really appreciated all of them!  Family means a lot to Geoff and he misses you all.  

It's been a fun day and as my Dad would say, "the celebration continues!" ...especially since we need to reschedule that date night!

I hope everyone has a great Halloween this week.  We have some fun costumes planned and will take lots of pictures to post soon.  Love you all!

  1. It was our primary program yesterday, too. And I agree. The program is much more enjoyable when you're not one of the ones in charge! It's still my favorite sacrament meeting of the year. :) Those kids are such a blessing.
