#30daysofbiking Day 11: birthday boy
Today was my husband Mark’s 50th birthday – WOOT!  Older and better I say. 😀  Kind of hard to grasp that we have been together for more than half of our lives… One thing is for sure, I wouldn’t change a single thing.
We had our family celebration together last weekend – when all the boys were home. Â So today was kind of anticlimactic … we just planned to hand around home, get a few things done and have a nice ride, dinner and a movie.
Another one of those days that didn’t go quite as planned. Â Mark and Grant played a little tennis in the morning, then we did some yardwork. Â And then came what was supposed to have been a brief – oh, one hour at most – home improvement project: installing a new electronic door lock … all my idea, of course. Which, like many home projects doesn’t go as planned and turned into close to 3 hours of aggravation. Â (And as of this morning, it is still not working as it should). Â Wasted far too much time messing with this thing, but finally decided to head out for a birthday ride.
It was definitely the best decision of the day. 😀  Had a great late-afternoon road ride, just the two of us.  Nice dinner out on the porch, and a relaxing movie at home afterwards.  Happy birthday, sweetheart!
