happy birthday, daddy


Today is my father's 58 birthday. He is the most wonderful, amazing dad. So loving, gracious, kind and warm. The epitome of what a man should be. I am so lucky and feel honored to be his daughter.

Last weekend I was visiting at my parent's house and baking a cake. Dad was re-building our back deck and took a break to lick the chocolate cake batter off of the beaters. I snapped this picture of him, relishing this moment. I think it will be a lifetime favorite photo.

because it's my birthday


I woke up this morning and put on "Birthday" by The Beatles, then I danced around my living room in my underwear. I am 25 years old now. What a grown up!
