Happy 25th Birthday DANIEL!!

So, for being his birthday, he had an eventful day!.....He got the privilege of preaching this morning at church and did a wonderful job. He loves to preach/teach! And the jr. high youth prepared the food for the fellowship lunch and served the food! So he was involved with that, too! 
Even though it's not the same without family here to celebrate with him, he got a lot of phone calls and some surprise cards, money, cake, and many birthday wishes! We ended up hanging out with the Cooper's (which we consider "family") the rest of the night, which was a great end of the day! 
I am so blessed to have a husband that is so loving, thoughtful, tender-hearted, funny, smart, God-fearing, and just so many more! I love him more than words can say! Happy Birthday Babe! You are the best husband and friend that I could ever have! God knew what He was doing when He put you in my life and I thank Him for it! Daniel brings so much joy into my life and I look forward to seeing what God has in store for our lives in the future together

We put together a few things to give to Daniel for his special day and actually the turn out with the contribution for his birthday and a new bow was phenomenal. He plans on selling one of his hand guns and then using the birthday money also to buy another bow. Which is exactly all he wanted for his birthday anyway! So PTL! 

Everyone joined in and sang Happy Birthday before blowing out the candles! 

I had to snap a few shots of him preaching away this morning! I always love hearing him speak about the Word and hear how passionate he is about living for the Lord! Preaching/teaching is definitely one of his gifts and talents among the many he has! 

Isn't he so handsome!! I am so proud of him and I can't help but just smile when I see him up there!

Soo glad Daniel has you in his life! You are so special. It's great to know that God has given you guys other "family" to celebrate special occasions with.
