Happy Birthday Benton!

Benton turned 27 today! I just want to let Benton know how much I truly love him and adore him. We get along so well, of course we have our tiffs but luckily they are very far and few in between. I told him last night how grateful I was to have him as my hubby. I don't tell him as often as I should.

While Benton is 27 he's going to graduate at Weber State University with a Bachelors Degree in IS&T (Information Systems and Technology), that's computers if you weren't aware, I wasn't when he told me that was what he wanted to do and changed his degree 2 years ago. I'm so proud of all of his hard work, he studies so much and really tries to get good grades. I know I would have given up, as most of you know Benton is such a hard worker. He works full time at HAFB, where he already has a job in his degree, goes to school full time and works a part time job at the Apple Store on Base. So you can tell how extremely busy this guy is and he's doing it all for us. He isn't one of those guys who just sits there, he does as much as he can to provide. We actually don't need the income from his Apple job, I've told him to quit many times, but he doesn't know what he'd do with all his free time- I think he's crazy. I work 40 hours a week and still feel like I need more free time.

I know Benton will be such a great dad, he worries so much about this baby already. I'm thinking he's going to be even more protective of the baby than I will be. He is thrilled that we're to the point in our lives where we can add onto our family, and so am I. We will have been married for 6 years before we have this baby and I'm so glad we've had that one on one time to be together.

I love you Benton and hope you have a great birthday!

Happy Birthday Benton!

I am with you when I worked 40 hours, I was constantly wishing for more time off, I can't imagine not knowing what to do with free time, I want too much free time!

Darn that baby with their legs crossed, oh well it will give you something to look forward to for the next month, the anticipation is always fun.

What a great post about your husband! Benton is one of the hardest working people I know. For as long as I can remember he's been going to school and the ENTIRE time (if I remember correctly) he's had two jobs the WHOLE time. For the longest time it was Saturn I didn't know he worked at the apple store - very cool - do you guys get a discount ;)! You too missy have had your share of working hard - you worked at AFCU and Sego Lily for quite a while too. You are a perfect couple together and I'm glad your husband takes such great care of you!
