HAPPY BIRTHDAY gorgeous hubby @ryansandes ! πŸŽˆπŸŽπŸŽ‰πŸŽˆ and may you be blessed with many more! • We’ve been together for nearly 10 years, through thick and thin, happy and sad times, ups and downs, been on many adventures and travelled hundreds and thousands of miles together across the globe! Neither you nor I are perfect but I think we fit together perfectly… I really am the luckiest girl in the world to have you by my side and to share a beautiful fur-child & human-child. The words ‘thank you’ don’t quite do justice to how grateful I am to have you in my life… Have a beautiful day my love! ❀️ • p.s I really really love your mullet! πŸ˜†πŸ™ˆ • • #happybirthday #love #family #ryansandes #hubby #husband #mylove #grateful #myguy #birthday #trailrunning #trailrunner
