The Texas Teels

our favorite guy is 34 today!

he walked in the door after work and said, “well, i’m officially mid-thirties.” 😂😂

i took the kids to the dollar tree at the beginning of the week and let presley pick out some decorations. she chose a birthday banner, some mickey mouse balloons, and a giant party hat. she was sooooo excited to surprise dad with “a celebration!”. she also picked him out a special gift while we were there, a toy dinosaur... “he will really like this!”. 

so we set up all our gifts, went and got texas roadhouse takeout, and i made low-carb cheesecake tarts. poor presley waited all day for those little “birthday cakes” and when i finally gave her one she did NOT like it 😂 i ended up letting her have two pieces of easter candy instead 🤷🏼‍♀️

after dinner the kids had a dance party in the living room. watching them dance is prob my favorite thing ever. also, it gets energy out for bedtime... win win. 

we put the kids down and immediately came to bed, where randy crashed in the clothes he was wearing and has been asleep since 8:00. birthday boy was tired, i guess! i booked him a massage for tomorrow, so he will continue to be spoiled!

he is really not into birthdays, like, at all. and if you know me at all, i’m the total opposite. i want to celebrate the whole month. every year i ask randy what he wants or what he wants to do to celebrate, and he always says the same thing... “nothing.”

but every year i try and make things special for him, and i truly hope it makes him feel loved. he is our provider and our strength, and we are his biggest fans. he does so much for us, and works so hard every single day. he rarely takes time off, doesn’t believe in sick days, constantly pushes himself to do better and be better... but mostly, he puts God first, he loves us hard, and he never lets us down. 

we are so proud and blessed to have him, so of course, we can’t help but celebrate him! 

happy birthday randall duane, we love you most!
