Happy Birthday Tiffany & Rodney!

We celebrated Tiffany and Rodney's 40th birthday Tuesday night. They had a great party with their closest friends and family... complete with fajitas, margaritas and Drew Womack serenading us in their gorgeous backyard!! The weather was perfect and it was a wonderful time! I didn't take any pictures but wanted to blog this poem I wrote. We all wrote a verse of a poem for them and read it all together at the end of the night. It was a wonderful way to toast a wonderful couple!





"On the night that we met, I was a little afriad,
as I walked up the stairs and introductions were made.
There you both stood, a sight to be seen –
Rodney a flasher, Tiffany a cow patty queen.
Most would have run and never come back,
but something inside said “You will regret that”.
It didn’t take long, one short summer and then,
our relationship changed from babysitter to friend.
From days on Lake Austin to a night at Midnight Rodeo,
we all entered a bikini contest and you won the whole show!
From scrap trips in Scottsdale to a boat in the BVI’s,
there isn’t a doubt, our travels are always a good time.
It there's one thing I could change about our friendship today,
there would be much fewer days between our time together to play.
So my wish for you today on this your 40th birthday,
is that in your hearts youth, adventure and joy will stay.
That your eagerness to learn and courage to try new things,
will continue to bring success, that you may spread your wings.
Most of all I wish you peace, laughter and love,
and this world’s greatest blessings from the good Lord above!"
