LIFE UPDATE

Swim Top: J Crew | Swim Bottoms: J Crew (one piece version here) | Hat: J Crew (only $34.99!) | Sunglasses: Prada (identical here for $22!) --- Haddie Swim: J Crew (love this style too!)

so BIG NEWS: We are officially out of the apartment and into our new house... and our neighbor has a POOL! haha BEST DAY EVER for Haddie.. and Louie! They were obsessed. They didn't notice the fact that the water was literally super warm because it was so hot out and when you sat down in the pool long enough the heat from the concrete started burning your buns! haha

But for real... Seth and I literally have SO SO SO much to do...

-finish painting the kitchen

-repaint cabinets (I didn't love the first color I chose (HUGE eye roll emoji)

-get the fridge delivered so we can actually keep food in our kitchen

-UNPACK AND ORGANIZE EVERYTHING. (this will take weeks, mainly because I have 2 little babes and they need my attention 99.9% of the time)

-Start on the bathrooms. We just ignored them the past few weeks trying to focus on everything else but now they need our attention asap!

Basically, there is just stuff EVERYWHERE and it feels like a bomb went off inside. It's really overwhelming, esp when you can't unload ANYTHING into your kitchen because your painting the cabinets. But we will make it. I'm sure of it. :)

Yesterday we just decided to take a break and have a family swim party. Yes, all four of us eventually made it into the pool on Haddie's orders. haha She's the best, as long as no water gets in her eyes.

But, onto the most important news of the day: 

MY HUSBAND IS 30 TODAY!!

Oh my gosh. I know he's turning 30 but to type it out makes it feel more real. I am NOT going to say he's old or anything but 30 feels like a big deal! Right babe? 

There is no one else that I know who should be celebrated more today! Seth is loving, loyal, kind, sweet, caring, hand's on, smart, a go getter, and an amazing teacher. He exemplifies Titus 1 & 2 of what a husband, man, and teacher ought to be. He is SO SELFLESS, disciplined, and upright. He is a man of his word and his character is what draws people to him. He is funny. He makes me laugh more than anyone I know (even though I don't laugh at some of his old jokes anymore lols) He is the best dad you could ever imagine and the most amazing friend to do life with. He loves the Lord with all his heart and pushes me daily to do the same. I love having a man who leads our family in word and action. I couldn't be more proud to be married to such a guy! 

Seth,

I have loved watching who the Lord has made you to be the last few years I have gotten to be married to you Seth babe and I cannot wait, Lord willing, to see who you will become over the next 30 and more! You are going to be amazing and I can't believe that I get to be by your side to watch, help, encourage, and cheer you on. You make me the best version of myself.

I LOVE YOU and celebrate your life today and all the joys you bring me and everyone who knows you! Your my everything!
