Happy 30th Birthday TC!

This past Friday TC celebrated his 30th birthday! I know-30! It is hard for me to believe I am married to a 30 year old. Anyway, we had a great weekend celebrating and thanks to all of our family and friends who played a part in his big day! TC's birthday weekend included many of his favorite things: cherry crepes, bowling, lunch at the Smokehouse, an afternoon out of golfing, and Tucano's. (It was a little bit more expensive than past birthdays but I figured this was a more monumental birthday!) Anyway, Savanna and I hope TC had a wonderful birthday! I am so lucky to have TC as my husband. He is so good to me and a wonderful father to our little girl. He works hard to make sure I can stay home with her but still spends quality time with each of us. He always encourages me in my goals and compliments me every day! He is patient, kind, and is always willing to help others. I love you TC! Happy Birthday! Here are some pictures of the celebration. (Sorry these pictures are in reverse order from when they actually happened. I was too lazy after posting them to change it.)

Tucano's (Savanna loves Tucano's. She loves meat and just devoured her food. It was cute!)

Bowling

TC opening his card and presents (I got him a 3-d globe puzzle. He thought it looked really cool. Puzzles are immensely boring to me but I'm sure TC will enjoy it!)

Yummy breakfast!!

How We Met

We met when both of us lived in the same apartment complex and were attending the same singles ward. We became acquainted as friends when one of Ashley's roomates was interested in one of TC's roommates and always wanted to hang out at their apartment. Ashley came along for moral support. Ashley has to admit that her initial impression of TC was not the greatest. She was wondering why he was trying to act like such a "tough guy" by shaving his head and going by TC. One day she asked him why he didn't grow his hair out to which he replied that he could not and she also learned that he goes by TC to distinguish himself from his father who is named Thomas Clark and his grandfather who is Thomas Clarence. TC relates that when he first met Ashley he thought she was cute and was contemplating asking her out or another girl in the ward. He did think Ashley was slightly immature because she was engaging in often frivolous activities such as throwing water balloons out her apartment window at people walking by and wrestling with guys in the apartment lounge. (She has grown up since then, TC says!) TC decided to give it a go and ask Ashley out after he came home from a trip visiting his sister, April, in Arizona. His roommates related that Ashley had expressed an interest in him. (Actually Ashley's roommate was trying to hook her up with TC and told his roommates Ashley wanted to go out with him. Ashley did not entirely object.) So TC called Ashley and asked her to go with a group to Pirates of the Caribbean. Their first official single date was to Wendy's (Way to go, TC, lol) TC and Ashley dated exclusively for about a year before becoming engaged in December of 2004 and were then married on April 23rd, 2005 and it has been bliss ever since!
