My honey, my best friend, my better half has caught up with me….FINALLY!  I turned 40 in January and he’s been rubbing it in, but today…YES, today my man is 40. Ever notice how it really was only cool to be older than people when you were in high school?  And I’m only 5 months older than him, but you’d think it was 5 years

Happy Birthday TJ, I love you and know the next 40 years will be as amazing as the first.

And I hope you’re ready for VEGAS
