✨HAPPY BIRTHDAY HUBBY - PART 2✨
✨
Happy Birthday 🥳🎂🎈🎉🎁 to the love of my life, my handsome hubby @therealvansr❣️
✨
You are my bad 🔪 & bougie 🥂king🤴🏽 and I love you more than words could say. Maybe this quick vid will show it a little though. But can I just say real quick that the broadcast journalism major in me is DYING inside over the fact that IG reels only allows 90 seconds of a song for licensing 😵‍💫so I’m sorry for the 2-part video because it’s
killing my whole vibe but …
✨
I rarely post on IG here anymore because I’m just so busy/present, daily, enjoying my life with you 💘
✨
We have more memories than I can remember (thank God for photos), more laughs than I can stomach, and more love than I can hold inside. Thank you for being my other half, my best friend, my 2am gossip pal, my protector, provider, and the best husband & dad you could be. 😭 So blessed 🙏🏻✨
✨
To be a girl who has no complaints about her relationship … not a single 1… surreal. All I can say is thank you, thank you … thank you ❤️‍🔥

✨10/10 ~ ANNIVERSARY✨
✨
Happy Anniversary to my handsome hubby, my other half, & my best friend❣️❤️
God sure knew what he was doing when he made me for you 🙌
Stronger together, bonded forever … I know now after all these years that we couldn’t live without each other.
You’re the louder to my loud, the more alpha to my alpha, & someone I can always rely on. You’re the 1st person, & sometimes the only person I tell things to. You’re unwavering support & encouragement, & our ability to always be a solid team is more than I could ever want. I don’t just have a lover & husband, but a true partner ~ we face every single thing side-by-side, as an unbreakable team, big or small. As someone who has ALWAYS been maximum independent & done everything on my own, I could only step aside to a teammate who would be as strong as me ~ & you are the definition of strength & fill that roll so seamlessly. You always say we are battle tested, & we laugh at the ones who tried & try to tear us down. We have accomplished so much in our time together, but my favorite memories with you are literally just laying in bed after we get everyone to bed, talking & laughing for hours & hours into the night just like we used to when we first met. How we make time for a mom & dad date every single week, how we make time to cuddle every day before work, & how we know our roles so seamlessly in each other’s lives. I don’t have to ask, because you already read my mind. And I don’t have to remind you, because it’s already on an invisible notepad in your mind. 😂 Thank you for unconditional love, & being the best protector & provider you could be to all of us. And of course, for only getting sexier as you age. Another year down, & forever to go❣️ I love you endlessly. ❤️

Happy Birthday Big Daddy❣️🥳🎁🎂🪅🍾🎊🎈🪩 Thank you Lord for this day, for my better half, my ride or die, & my best friend @therealvansr❣️😘💋

Thank you for being by my side through thick & thin & always being the rock to this family. You are the glue that holds us all together, an amazing father, & even more amazing hubby❣️
I don’t know what I’d ever do without you, so I’m incredibly grateful you’re stuck with me for life 😂🙌💯
My favorite things about you are your tenacity, how always lovingly gentle you are with me, how we laugh 24/7 nonstop, & how you cherish all the ways we have fought to be together. What’s tested & does not break, only gets stronger & stronger with time…. You have always said we are unbreakable. 💪🏻
❤️‍🔥
I’m glad we got to enjoy your fave, BBQ for your bday & of course your fave strawberry cream cake 🎂
Best part of the night:
As we were walking to dinner & it was raining (so all the worms, snails, & slugs were out), McKenna stopped & freaked out about seeing a snail for the first time in her life on a succulent in the parking lot. She was SO excited & just could NOT get over how awesome it was that she saw her first snail 🐌 😂
Well dinner went by & we were walking back to the car, in the pitch dark, & I told her that we would find the snail on the way back & I’d take a photo of her with it. She took my work phone & started to shine a flashlight in the parking lot getting SUPER EXCITED to find it, with me walking behind, my camera ready on my personal phone. She was level TEN excited when we all heard “CRUNCH!!!” & I just stared at her & we all just KNEW…..
She stepped on the snail 🐌 ☠️🪦😂😭🤦‍♀️
Didn’t even skip a beat & she threw her head back in misery & wailed at the sky “IM A MURDERERRRREER!!!” & the biggest alligator tears I’ve ever seen fell from her eyes 😭😂 She is screaming & wailing in the parking lot while Van is hysterically laughing trying to catch his breath & I’m comforting her telling her it’s okay don’t feel bad, while simultaneously trying not to laugh at all & mouthing to Van to STFU & get away from us. 😂😂

✨VALENTINE’S DAY✨
✨
We had such a beautiful Valentine’s Day & we hope you all did too❣️
A lovely date night, picked out our favorite chocolates together, surprised McKenna with her favorite ~ Stitch, after she got home from dance, & spent the rest of the night relaxing & cuddling pups on the couch. Heart is so grateful to spend another year with my handsome hubby @therealvansr
You are everything I’ve ever dreamt of, and more ♾️🥰❤️😘💋
✨ ...

✨LIFE IS A BEAUTIFUL RIDE WITH YOU✨
✨
Thankful you’re by my side, in front of me, & behind me every step of the way.
