Overalls

When Nate gets a project in mind, he reminds me of a kid on Christmas eve, so anxious and excited he just can't stand it! He recently had the idea to build a wood burning stove for our garage. Well... here it is.


He also reminds me of a kid when he puts on these bad boys. Yes, my hubby wears overalls, with PRIDE. That's what growing up in Georgia has done to him. :) I never would have thought I could love a man in overalls, but I sure do! He's such a hard worker and so good at taking care of our little family (me and Mose, that is)!

We celebrated Nate's 26th birthday on Friday, it was a little stressful, and a lot of fun!

Stressful because I decided to make dinner (which I RARELY do) and a cake, and didn't really have time to complete them both, let alone clean the house, wrap his gifts (one of which didn't get here until today), write him a thoughtful birthday card, or study for my finals...

Fun because he really liked the Clam Chowder (and so did I, minus the clams), the cake looked pretty nice, even though it wasn't the best, he was surprised/excited with the backpacking hammock I got him, and we got to go see the movie Hanna with his parents. ...and because he's just a good husband and even though he doesn't normally fold the laundry or make the bed, he did both of those things because he knew I had really wanted to get them done before he got home... it made me feel really guilty for a minute, but then I just decided it's okay that he is the sweetest husband I could ever ask for!

We're getting excited to go camping soon!! His new backpack came today, so hopefully we'll be off to break it in soon too!
