Hip Hip Hurray, it’s your big day!

This is a little hip hip hurray for my hubby. It was his birthday on Saturday. It was a good day but I have to say it was not the best of days. I wanted his birthday to be really special but we spent the morning at my volleyball game (yea, we won the championship!! Go Draper!!) and a good 4 hours cleaning our carpets.

Luckily my mom offered to watch the kids while we went out. We wanted to do something fun so I told him he could choose. He wanted to go mountain biking. So after we finished our carpet cleaning we rushed out the door to the get the canyon. I knew we’d be finishing the last half mile or so in the dark so I was a little nervous.

Unfortunately, Jer took a spill early on in the ride. It made him light headed and jacked up his shoulder pretty good. He finished the ride but I was worried about him and we did have to finish the ride in the dark.

Jer means so much to me. When he fell I was ahead of him quite a bit so I stop to wait for him to catch up… I didn’t know he’d fallen so when he didn’t catch up I was worried. A hiker passed by and told me he’d fallen. She looked pretty worried. In fact, she looked freaked out and waited around to make sure he was okay. I turned around to go find him and had all those awful thoughts you never want to think about. I was so happy to see his was okay.

Gosh, I’ll spare you all of the mooshy gooshy sentiments but I have them… even if I don’t express them very often.

Happy Birthday Jer!
