May 13th was Joshie's 29th birthday. I can't believe in one year he'll be 30! That's crazy to me.
Josh is the best big brother ever. While we grew up he was a big bully. Really mean to me. I think brothers are supposed to be that way though. And then he met Rheanne and she brought out the real Josh. The Josh that is sweet, caring, hilarious, and fun. It's been cool to see Josh grow from being a big, nerdy, mean brother to a sweet wonderful husband to Rheanne and daddy to Oliver. And he's become a pretty great brother.
One recent memory I have of Josh that showed me how sweet he had become was when I went skiing for the first time in years and I fainted in the lodge. Josh ran to me and comforted me as I was super embarrassed. It showed me how much he had changed into just an all-around good guy. And it's been fun to discover that out of all the siblings Josh and I are the most alike. Which is probably why we didn't get along very well when we were younger, but now we take the good parts of us that are similar and embrace those..like our hilarious jokes. Seriously the comedians of the family.
I must say, I have the best siblings ever so I think about them a lot on their birthday especially since I can't see them. So Brand and I decided to do a little Josh celebration. We decided to eat from his favorite food group...Sugar and more sugar.
In fact we had Josh's favorite meal, marshmallows. Ours were strawberry but we added some chocolate chips for some extra fun.
They're little marshfellows!! haha. Aren't they cute?
So a little HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH!!
Love you!
I love the little marshmallow dudes! That's a very sweet blog entry too. I think Josh is sweet too :) You two were the middle children so maybe that's why you had a tumultuous relationship haha. You guys are a lot alike though. Definitely make the same jokes and I think out of all of you two look the most alike too. It's fun seeing "Ekhoff" characteristics in Oliver :)
