Happy Birthday Erika

I just wanted to profess my love to the most beautiful, wonderful, amazing, cutest, hard working, incredible, loving, forgiving, patient, spiritual, tender woman I’ve ever known. I love you sooooooooo much!!!! Words cannot express the feelings that I have for you. You are truly heaven sent. I thank my Heavenly Father everyday for sending you to me. You make me want to be a better person. Thank you for dealing with my imperfections! During this time I’ve been thinking about our first date and my Mom giving me the advice, “Don’t mess this up” before I went to pick you up. I remember every time before my mission that I thought about you. I remember you not being there and thinking you stood me up but really you were just playing hard to get. I remember playing IZ the whole time we were out and thinking that I had a good taste in music and that you were bound to think I was cool because of it. I remember waiting outside with you at Ruby’s on the pier and thinking how easy it was to talk to you. I remember when you said that you could bite into a whole onion and like it (that still grosses me out btw). I remember walking with you on the sand while the other couples we were with walked off holding hands, but we just sat down and kept talking. I remember wondering if I should shake your hand or hug you when I dropped you off at your house. I remember being relieved when you said it was okay to hug you. I remember being on cloud 9 the whole ride home (it took 6 min to get from your house to mine that night). I remember not being able to sleep that night and wondering if I should call you the next day (I’m glad I did). I love you more than words can express and want to let everyone know that!!! Oh ya and Happy Birthday!!!! We'll make it a good one.

Happy Birthday Babe!

April 30,1981

Just wanted to proclaim my love for you on your birthday. You really mean so much more then words can describe. Even though we've been through rocky times we have been able to get through them as a stronger couple. I really don't know what I would do without you. Thanks for making dinner, and helping me clean, and taking care of the kids, and being my doctor when I wasn't feeling good this week. You are wonderful! Lets have fun tonight!

Here is a picture that reminds me of my high school crush. You look so young!

The Lovely Bladh Family

Josh and Erika

For those who I have not seen for a long time I thought that I should write a little about our family. Josh and I were married Feb. 22,2003 and are as happy as can be...really! We have 2 kids, Tyler (3) and Elle (14 mos). We will have more but taking a break. We are hopefully less then 2 weeks away from moving to our brand spankin' new house in Corona. Josh is doing real estate loans and I am doing real estate. We feel that the Lord has blessed us so much to have a lovely family, a home (soon), and a career that we just love and find fascinating.
