Russ's Birthday was July 25!
O.K. I'll admit it- I didn't make the cake but it was an ice cream cake from Cold Stone and oh soooo yummy!
It has been a long year and Russ has been busier and working harder than ever.
Each of the kids gave him a new tie and I gave him an incredible trip to Sedona (pictured below) the next weekend!
I hope that's what he was wishing for.

Happy Birthday!!!
This is where we spent 3 days and two nights loving each other and loving life!
Our beautiful condo. ROMANTIC!
Presents that were much more fun than a tie
The red rock on the way into town
We ate a Shugrue's on the Hillside. One of our favorite places in Sedona.
This was our third trip there as a couple.
Yummy scallops and steak. Mmmmmm
We enjoyed a day in the hot sun and cold water with lots of snacks, books and no kids!
What beautiful red rocks and wonderful memories!
