Happy Birthday to the best thing that ever happened to me.
Trek turned 41 on January 25th & we celebrated with a delicious birthday breakfast of biscuits & gravy, extra bacon, & a vanilla cupcake with chocolate frosting.
We spent the morning opening presents the kids made for him. Trek loves it when the kids make little people out of toilet paper rolls or paper. Our kids are so creative & we love celebrating their creativity.
So for Trek's birthday, he spent the majority of the day carrying out a huge youth activity he's been planning for months for our stake (6 congregations of youth ages 11-18). The youth met up at the church from 3pm to 10 pm where they attended workshops, had dinner, went ice skating, & ended with a dance. Trek ran a good chunk of it & Trek & I both got to teach a workshop together for 2 of the hours. It was really really fun. I can't think of a better way to spend your birthday than to spend it serving 200 amazing youth. Trek is such an example of selfless service & love. Of course that was a dream birthday for him.
We celebrated his birthday dinner a day late because of the activity on his birthday. I made him his favorite:
mock chicken, au gratin potatoes, & bananas.
Happy birthday to the greatest human being I've ever met. Every day you surprise me with your compassion, patience, love, & selflessness.
Happy Birthday Trek.
