Matt Turns 27...

Today was a good day.
Matt and I are polar opposites. Somehow it works out really well for us.
He is a gospel genius, outgoing, really smart with geography/animals (wink wink), social, confident, hyper (in a good way), an accent wizard, driven, sympathetic, optimistic, strong, loyal, content, quick to apologize, the most adorable dad, tall/dark/handsome, lovable, and basically the whole package. For me, this list could go on and on. He seems to have every quality I lack, which is why he's so good for me. He pushes me in many ways. I am lucky to have such a great guy to be around all the time.

On Saturday we went up the canyon for some food and fishing.

On Sunday, Matt's actual birthday, he got a tent to go with the outdoor theme we had going.

And some other silly presents as well..

Birthdays wouldn't be complete without flank steak, creamed corn, baked potatoes, and ice cream cake. Matt's dream meal. Thanks, Patty.

And thank you, Dru, for arranging the hats so beautifully by the cake. :)

To wrap up the celebrations, we had a camp out in the living room, complete with cards and popcorn.

It has been so fun to celebrate Matt this weekend. He is simply the best!
