25 years & Mordern Bird Studios

25 years ago yesterday….I did just that!

It has been an incredible 25 years and I am amazed at how fast those years have flown by!  The Bug Man is a kind and caring man ~ the one who melts my heart.  He is ALWAYS there for me. ALWAYS by my side. ALWAYS there to catch me when I fall.

I love……..

I know that I love waking up next to you every morning. I love knowing that you’ll make me laugh out loud every day. I love talking to you and sharing everything with you. I love that you put up with me and all my flaws. I love that you are THE best Dad and provider for our family! I love that you NEVER let us down. I love that your family ALWAYS comes first. I love that you tell me I look fabulous when I feel fat. I love that you hug me when I cry. I love that you will go to the store when I don’t feel like going. I love that you will pick up pizza when I don’t feel like cooking. I love that you know me. I LOVE that you LOVE me. I love that it’s painfully obvious that our 2 kids are our 2 kids and they have good and bad features/traits/habits from each of us. I hope we have managed to set an example for our girls as to what a happy, successful marriage is.

I’ve been wanting a piece of really cool art work to put in the house of just the two of us (other than this really lovely wedding shot!- hey, it was the 80’s don’t laugh!  haha).  Our first daughter was born almost 18 months after we were married…..so most all photos we have are with the kids.

When the folks at Modern Bird Studios contacted me I knew this was my opportunity to get my priceless treasure!

Who is Modern Bird Studios? This husband and wife team create one-of-a-kind pieces with a combination of digital, hand and painting processes on an oak composite, or, for the extreme modern enthusiasts, on acrylic mounted to oak.

Original photo can be seen here

Seeing our piece from Modern Bird in person was even more beautiful than I ever imagined!  I think it was the perfect shot of my husband and I that show’s exactly what our marriage is……..both of us working hand in hand! I LOVE it!
