Another birthday!

It was Chad’s turn!

We celebrated on a Sunday evening with a big meal, a few gifts, and a chocolate chip espresso cheesecake!

Chad chose grilled steak and shrimp, baked yams and potatoes, and a tossed salad.

It was yummy!

After dinner and all that yumminess, Chad opened a few gifts!

The best part about birthdays (and Sunday evenings) is just being together!!

I love this photo of Briar hanging on to Grant’s leg and being pulled around the kitchen!

We sang to Chad and then enjoyed some of that beautiful grain-free and dairy-free cheesecake!

We finished out the night with a routy game of Dutch Blitz!

What a fun evening we had!!

Chad Ryan, we are SO glad you were born!

All those years ago your big sister Kayla prayed so hard for another sibling, and God answered her prayers with YES!

Your steady qualities are a blessing, your vision is inspiring, you are wise and mature beyond your years, and your super quick wit keeps us in stitches!

You bring such JOY and LIFE to our lives and our home, and we are so thankful that you love the Lord!

We are excited to watch God write your story!

Happy, happy birthday, Chad Ryan!!

WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!
