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!

I just got engaged on Thursday and I think this would be awesome for a wedding photo. (I snagged a boy from Kirkwood, MO. People from that area are kinda cool, right?;-) I like the two color process with the white and purple-ish coloring!
I have the cutest picture of my little boy that would be awesome in the multi-color with the blues and grays.

I love the two color process in gray-blue.

Just took a peek at Modern Bird Studios and love their work! I would choose a 4 color design of my kids. So Cool! Thanks for sharing.
I would choose a picture of my kids in the blue/gray color combo!
I would choose the blues and grays. I would get a picture of my husband and I for our new bedroom!

I would do a picture of my son and I as we are embarking on a new life, just the two of us. Not sure exactly which picture, but I have a few in mind! 🙂

I’m a fbook fan of both Modern Bird AND Tidy Mom
I love Modern Bird! I’d choose a picture of our kids in a brown and blue or gray and blue combo…or maybe orange, just for fun!
I love the blues/green multicolor process. I’d probably pick this sweet pic of my kids taken at my daughter’s 2nd birthday party last year. She was feeling a bit shy, so her big brother put his arm around her and led her to her presents. My husband’s uncle caught the shot perfectly from behind.
I’d love to do a blue/brown colour scheme of this EPIC picture of my three daughters!

I have a gorgeous picture of me with my son when he was born that I would love to have the original 2-color process done with; probably in a black/tan combination.

Since I know have three little boys, I would do a picture of them to have in my living room. I love the color combo of black and creams.
First of all Happy
Anniversary to you.
I really want to win this so bad. I have a new picture of my grandchildren that I would use. I’m not sure the color combination I’d use yet. Something to go with the ocean. I might need advice on that. I did go to Moder Bird. I actually already follow them.
I signed up to follow you by email. Thanks for another chance.
Happy Anniversary!
I’d love to have a photo of my husband and I turned into a two color piece. Probably a dark brown and natural piece.
I follow Tidy Mom via google reader.
I have the sweetest pic of my little boy meeting a horse. It would look great in the black and natural wood combo!

Multi color pic of me and the mister!
I love these! Might sound funny but I would get a picture done of our fabulous boston terrier. We have canvas prints of us but none of our special pup 🙂 I love the treatment with red

I have been shamelessly pining to get a piece of Modern Bird Art in our home, and have entered lots of giveaways to no avail. Maybe this will be the one! Thank you TidyMom for hosting.
I would get a 2 tone print in grey. The picture is of my husband and I while we were dating.
