30th Birthday

Today is Josh's 30th birthday. I wanted to reflect on my husband today, on his day, and make a list (I love making lists) of things I've learned from him:

• The in's and out's of how a hockey goalie defends the goal (butterfly block, anyone?)
• The fact that Patrick Roy (former Avalanche #33 goalie) is pronounced "waugh" instead of "roy"
• The way to artfully frame a picture and be aware of surroundings
• The method to make the perfect frito-pie
• That ninjas, monkeys and zombies are awesome
• How to cook meals that incorporate no vegetables or fish
• That a person can change anything with time and dedication
• Contrary to popular belief, a Bob Ross painting is not easy to paint
• All leftover's must be heated up in the oven, not the microwave
• You can king more than one chess piece into the queen
• You can do a "smell" test on your Burger King order to make sure they remembered the onion rings
• How to say "about" in Canadian, "ah-boout"
• And finally, with enough practice, you can beat any song on Guitar Hero

Thanks, Josh, for those life lessons. And for the many, many others that I can't continue to list here. I love you and happy 30th birthday, I'm right behind you!
