Nealy's 25th Birthday

Neal turned 25 on February 25th, 2001.  

A short 19 days before he was killed.

Neal LOVED Carvel Ice Cream Cakes....
So, that's what he got!! Crunchies and all!!

Neal's very last card from me...
.
One of those loving, mushy To My Wonderful Husband cards...

Now I'm glad it meant as much
as it did to him and he smiled so big...

Neal wondering whether he has to go get the fire extinguisher....

and reading a card from his Pop-Pop

Neal decided he better blow out the candles ... 
but doesn't he make an absolutely adorable puffer-fish??
