1. In my most frustrated moments he can make me crack up.
2. He makes awesome milkshakes.
3. We can spend an entire night battling in Mario Kart, Guitar Hero etc. and have blast.
4. His great knowledge and testimony of the Gospel and his abilitiy to teach it.
5. He's a mans man who knows how to be sweet.
His birthday was the 21st (so this is a little late) and we were lucky to have some great friends join us for dinner.



For anyone who watches the office, there is an episode where Michael requests an ice cream for Meredith's 'sort-of birthday' even though she's lactose intolerant. Anyway he yells "Mint Chocolate Chip!" at Pam and it has always cracked Matt and I up. So, without fail, I ask Matt what kind of birthday cake he wants and...you guessed it. It was fabulous, thank you Baskin Robbins.

Another thing you might notice in that picture...MY DARK HAIR!! Aaaahhhh! I've never ever ever had dark hair (naturally Im a med-dark blonde) and I'd pretty much sworn against going dark. Well, For his birthday Matt wanted a Kevin Garnett jersey, 3 Ninjas DVD, (and clothes that I thought he should ask for ha), and he wanted me to dye my hair! I still don't know how I feel about it. Let's just say I feel more comfortable being my normal boring blonde self so expect that back in the future:)

Happy 23rd "Buddy" :)
