Happy Birthday John!

March 10 was John's 40th birthday.  The day started slow.  It's nice to take your time in the morning.  Something we rarely get to do anymore.  Since we're used to getting up early, we were ready sooner than expected.  We went to Target to get the kids some clothes.  Seems like they always need something.  William out grows his pants just as soon as he puts them on, and the same is true for Jacob and his shirts. We ate lunch at Chipotle and picked up the boys at 1:00 p.m. We dropped off Ian at Grandma's, but before we left John opened his presents.  They boys were pretty excited about what they got him.  Giving gifts is such a wonderful feeling.

We headed to Denver to watch the Colorado Rapids season opener.  Jacob was sad we didn't take Ian but he's really too young to go to the games.  It was hot then cold - not the best atmosphere for a baby.  Anyway, John loves soccer.  So I think it's pretty neat the season started on his birthday and we were able to go.  It was a great game.  They won 2-0.

Go RAPIDS!!

Getting older makes you think about how little time we really have.  I'm so happy John was able to spend time with his boys on his birthday. I know he loves being with them.  It is, after all, what matters most, and the best birthday present anyone can receive.
