Ted

This post is dedicated to Ted.  He wanted a post about his car, but i decided to do a whole post just on Ted.

Ted's new ride
1966 Karmann Ghia
He originally bought one in June before we moved to California.  It was in Montana and our friends dad was going to store it for us until September when we could get it (it was an incredible deal) and Ted would restore it.  Well long story short, there was a hail storm no more than 1 week after we bought it and by a miracle we had gotten insurance on it.  It was totaled.  

The insurance covered what we paid for the car, and what they thought it was worth, a whole heck of a lot more than what we paid.  Ted was able to buy a new car (one we found in San Diego) and we have enough money left over to adopt!  

I think my dad is right by calling Ted's Karmann Ghia the "Baby Ghia"  we are hoping to adopt in the next year :)

Our 2 cars now :)

Ted's car.  I told him a year ago I told him he would have a Karmann Ghia by his birthday, he didn't believe me.  But here he is on his bday!  Happy 30th!


Ted and I on a bike ride on the strand.  Ted always has been so handy!  I love that he can fix my bike when I break it half way through the ride and we can finish!

Ted's first day of school

A view of his school from across the street at the mall

His pants that fit less than a year ago....40 pounds lighter!

My hot man!

Ted always being my baking helper, I can't frost well or make the final product look nice, he is my go to man!

When our friends came to visit he was entertaining Kate who is 7, she has a crush on Ted, I can't blame her :)

Ted teaching Jane and Kate the guitar.  We had a dance party later, Janes got some moves~!

Ted and his dad in Malibu.  Where Ted got all of his many talents from!

This picture is my favorite wedding picture right now, we are constantly laughing at each other lately.  We have late nights of watching TV shows, we play jokes on each other, and just are crazy all day long. I'm lucky to be married to a comedian that happens to be my best friend!

I love that you did this post! You guys are such a great example to Austin and I of what an awesome partnership is. You two are two peas in a pod! (well, 3 with Lola :)) Love the pictures with Kate. He's so good to spend time with them when they are around him. You got a good one when you married Ted!
