My fabulous husband is 25 today! I can’t believe it. I mean, I’ve known Toby since we were 13 years old, so it’s just incredibly hard to fathom that we’ve been part of each other’s lives for so long! This man is absolutely the love of my life and has been for a very, very long time.

So today I’m celebrating and saying prayers of thanks for the birthday of my best friend, my soulmate, an amazing dad, and a wonderful husband. Thank you, God, for giving him to all of us 25 years ago today. (Thanks also to Mom and Dad V who sort of had a hand in it as well!!! Haha! Your son is fantastic!)

I thought I’d share some pictures today… Some from long, long ago. One as recent as today. Enjoy!

Toby :: I can’t even begin to tell you how glad I am to be your wife. I love you. Happy Birthday!

This first picture is from our senior year at Covington Latin School. It seems so long ago!!!

This one is in front of the Eiffel Tower on our honeymoon back in 2006.

Toby holding Emma… It’s hard to believe it’s been a year!

One of my favorites of Toby. Ever.

This one’s from tonight… Check out the AMAZING carrot cake made by my mom and sister! It was so delicious!!!
