Happy Birthday Daddy


Today would have been my Dad's 50th birthday. This is a picture of us singing happy birthday to him when we were younger. Ericka was always one for the dramatic, one of her nicknames was Hollywood when she was younger. We are so blessed to have such a great dad. There was nothing more important to him then his family. We love and miss you Dad, but we know we will see you again soon.

Our Anniversary

Matt and I celebrated our anniversary on February 23rd. He was in charge this year and since we are in the great city of Seattle which is where our courtship and proposal occurred, Matt decided to re-enact our proposal. The night he originally proposed he took me to Anthony's Homeport on the Kirkland waterfront for dinner, and then we went for a walk on the waterfront, and when we got to a dock out over Lake Washington with the lights of Seattle behind us, he professed his love for me and then got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. It was an absolutely beautiful night. Well, he did everything the same except when we got out onto the dock there was a bunch of guys sitting out there, so he didn't get down on his knee, but he did present me with this beautiful heart shaped diamond ring. As you can tell it is much bigger then my original ring. He's so cute. I love you Matt Stevulak, I'm such a lucky girl to have you.
