Happy Birthday Matt!

It's almost over - the day that is - and Matt is probably in bed, but I just got back from Phoebe's and didn't have access to Blogger - and thought I'd done it ahead of time - so much for my memory!!

But we love Matt!  And we are so grateful to have him in our family.  He is mellow and helpful and wise and loving - and he's a great husband and a wonderful father.

We can't ask for much else!!

Hope it was a great day - and that the year ahead is as wonderful as you are!!

Happy Birthday Matt!!

Happy Birthday to Matt!! He is the best - we are really happy that Eliza chose him!!

 

He is calm, cool, collected, and wise for his years!! He is patient and kind - and always good for the early a.m. pick up at Dulles Airport!!

Can't ask for much more!!

Have a great day - and a great year ahead!!

Happy Birthday Matt!

So happy to have Matt in our family.  From the moment he came into our lives, we knew he was a keeper.  He is so mellow and laid back and helpful and kind and pleasant to be around.  He's interested and interesting.  

And he's a great dad and wonderful husband.  What else do you need??

Happy day to you Matt - and all year through!

A Man For All Seasons!!

We have always been grateful that Matt joined our family.  And over the years, we have just become more and more convinced that he is the best!!

Happy day to you Matthew - and all year through!

(Is there some reason why I don't have any "single" shots of our great sons-in-law?  Is it because they are always there, supporting kids and cousins?  Maybe so!)

Happy Birthday to You!!

This was the first photo of Matt that I came across when I sat down to write this!! Seems long ago, doesn't it??

We have enjoyed a lot of holidays with Matt - starting with the time he and Eliza came for Christmas just before their wedding!! (Welcome, Matt!!)

And they just keep getting better!! Kind of like Matt - a great addition to our family!!

Matt is a wonderful son, husband, brother, father, son-in-law, and friend.

We love you Matt - and wish you all the best!!

Happy Birthday Matt!!

There are not a whole lot of photos of just Matt!! I probably used this one last year too- but it's a great shot - worth repeating!!

And in a thumbnail, I couldn't tell that Theo was upset. But Matt is a great dad - and I have always been impressed with his calm manner in dealing with unhappy children. And dealing with happy children too!! He really seems to enjoy and understand his kids.

Matt fits right in - it's like he's always been here. He seems to love everyone we love - and shows it.

A gentleman and a scholar!!


If we'd been doing the choosing, we could never have chosen as well as Eliza did!!

We love you Matt!! Have a great day - and a wonderful year ahead.
