Happy Birthday, Ricky!

It's the big 4 - 0 today!  He's been dreading this day for a while and for some reason the number 40 seems to have brought a slight damper to the birthday celebration.  We have a fun day planned though and I'm so excited to share it with him.
Ricky is an amazing husband and father.  He has wonderful qualities that allow him to support and love us unconditionally. Our boys love their daddy so much even though they don't always show it.  He is my best friend, my biggest supporter and my love.  We are so grateful to have him in our lives.
Happy Birthday, honey.  We love you!!
