Happy Birthday to the Quadfather

That's right everyone, it's Bill-boy's birthday! Thank you, Vickie, for going through all that labor and pain to bring him into this world 28 years ago today. He's so special, he celebrates his "birthday week", but please join me in wishing him a Happy Birthday today.
Billy and I met in high school and started dating our junior year in November 1997. It hasn't always been easy (just ask our family and friends), but there is no one I'd rather be sharing my life with today.
I'm posting a few pictures of us through the years. My how time flies!


Junior Prom


Our wedding day - June 24, 2000. What a couple of young pups!

A couple of years ago??? Can't remember. That was our doggy, Ralph. He had an untimely death after an unfortunate meeting with a bumper.


Halloween 2005 (I think). That year, we were a doctor/nurse combo. I tried getting him to wear the dress, but he backed out. We LOVE Halloween and usually try to dress up every year. Other past costumes include Litte Bo Peep (Billy) and her sheep (me), a lock (me) and key (Billy), and last year in Phoenix I dressed up as a woman pregnant with quads because I was laid up in the hospital on Halloween.

I love you, Billy! Have a GREAT birthday week!

Happy Birthday, Billy! You were just a little three year old tyke when I first came into the mix and now look at you! It's been so much fun watching your life unfold--sometimes in a rather bumpy fashion!--and I could never have predicted where life would find you today: the father of four BEAUTIFUL babies and married to their momma who gets more beautiful every day. How lucky are you?? Have a fabulous birthday and make sure you share your cake with the quadlets! Love you! Stacey

Happy Birthday Billy. Hope it is a good one and I hope you have many more. You are a awesome Dad and Monica is an awesome Mom to the quads. I enjoy helping you out with the quads. The quads are addicting, because I cannot wait until the next time I see them to see what they are doing new. Of course I love spending more time with you two also. Make sure to share some birthday cake with the quads. I will see you tomorrow night.
Love
Brenda
