Happy Birthday to my Wonderful Husband!

Max didn't have a typical birthday, but then, Max isn't a typical man. (He is, truthfully, the hardest working and unselfish person I know!)

Anyway, ever since we bought our home (in 1990), he has wanted a shed to store all his tools, tools and more tools. :) But since this house (was a repo when we bought it) needed so much necessary work, he kept putting if off what he wanted...until now. Since Landon was still on Christmas break, and things were quiet at work, he ordered the wood and the work began.
 And since this project happened to fall on the week of his birthday.... I did the best I could with what I had to work with - a shed under construction. :)

The night before his birthday, the kids and I snuck out and decorated. Not bad for doing it in the dark! And, I only stepped off the ladder wrong one time. OUCH!

 I made a very nice brunch, and we had a picnic in the shed. Yes, unusual, but fun! :)

 We decorated his saws, ladders...and even got a birthday pin on his tool belt.

 Here's the proud birthday guy with his children. Just being together as a family is the best gift you could ever give Max and I!

After brunch, we climbed on the roof to enjoy a beautiful Tucson "winter" morning. (Hey, we pay the price in the summer!) We enjoyed fruit and muffins and sang him the birthday song. (I know our neighbors think we're nuts.) :)

Max and Landon worked the rest of the day until Payton's soccer game at 4:00. After the game, we had pizza and tiramisu. (He's actually gets two birthday desserts. My mom mails (yes, mails!) him a German Chocolate cake, too.

I thank God for the BEST husband and father in the world!

Happy Birthday, my wonderful husband!
