I often pray "Lord, be with my Robin". And then I correct myself and pray, "Lord, be with 'Our' Robin".
***
Why? Because Robin is truly a gift from God to me. Happy Birthday dear Robin Lee. There are many songs that have lyrics that would speak somewhat of our relationship and to who you are as a Godly Woman... but the truth is... "They all fall short".

You are amazing.. May you be blessed abundantly on the anniversary of your birth and in all your days ahead.
Mom and I count you as a blessing from God. We pray that you have not just a good day, but years forward and on down the road. You have been a friend to many. We consider it a privilege to not only call you son, but also partner... on the ranch and in ministry at RBR. Godspeed young man.
Robin... we sure do love and appreciate you. May you be blessed abundantly as you so abundantly bless. Thanking God everyday for my awesome partner.... Larry and family
Happy Birthday to my dear wife, Robin. You provide sparkle to the day. You are a great partner, a wonderful mom to our children and a true friend to so many. Thank you... I love you. LBR
EEF IT'S WHATS FOR SUPPER AND REMEMBER THE WEST WAS NOT WON ON A SALAD.
Alright... We have a special birthday in the family tomorrow. A little change of plans since we are also celebrating Family Christmas (Paulton-Chord-Reinhold) tomorrow. Thus, we had birthday dinner tonight for the special someone...(I will fill you in on that tomorrow). We had Lonetree Ranch Tri-Tip Roast. It was prepared on the grill after being marinated my own recipe which includes Oregano White Balsamic Vinegar from Vita Sana in Rapid City. We prepared it to around medium rare and then let it rest. One of the roasts was grilled to a little more done. Our crew prefers less cooked. Rachel made some dandy potatoes to go with it and Julia prepare a chocolate mousse for dessert.
A little trick that we have learned when grilling quantities of meat is to have Dutch oven near the grill. As the meat is done. you just put it in the cast iron oven... The resting time will help the meat to retain the juices and the meat will continue to heat to an even temp for all the pieces being grilled. It is handy to have a digital meat thermometer on hand as well. Takes some of the guess work out of grilling over fire.
I consider myself as your husband most blessed, but as I think of all the people that you impact...many are blessed. Your zest for life and love of the Lord, along with your desire to be a servant of Christ is inspirational. You are my "Dakota Rainbow"...my "friend of promise".
These full brothers are hardly fighting. Buck and Elijah enjoy sparring on this crisp winter morning. Robin has noticed that these two beautiful dun geldings thoroughly enjoy being with each other and are generally teasing one another as well. Sounds like family.
The morning sun was cast in an eerie, nearly golden hue as it cleared the eastern horizon. However, even -10 degree weather, the warm rays burned off the surrounding haze rather quickly.
Now you know what Robin enjoys doing on her birthday.
Some of you may recall reading the article in the Rapid City Journal or the Meade County Times about the calf that was used in the Birthday in the Barn Celebration at Rainbow Bible Ranch. This is Myrtle and her son Meldon on this beautiful frosty morning.
Oh Yes, Happy Birthday Robin.
You are great partner, wife, mother and friend. We pray God's blessing upon you. We know that you will spread those blessings abroad. And thank you for all you are and do. We love you.
Larry, Rachel, Molly, Danny, Caleb, Julia and Kiersten.
