**The HGTV **celebrity revealed on Monday a glimpse of his birthday celebrations with his wife Kellee Merrell in Aspen, Colorado.

"Wonderful birthday celebrations in Aspen Thank you for your kind words and thoughts, #olderbutnotwiser! "The caption on **Pennington^/s** post was 58.

He chronicled his excursions with Merrell, 34, in a series of Instagram pictures, beginning with a delicious dinner visit. Pennington posed for a photograph at an outdoor table in front of a tray of oysters.

The pair engaged in various enjoyable activities, including fishing, in preparation for their one-year wedding anniversary in November. In a cute photo taken by the water, the couple wore identical waders as well as lanyards that held beer koozies.  
The two went on a nature expedition that included a selfie in front of a beautiful mountain backdrop and a video of Pennington having a blast running through an aspen forest. He and Merrell can be heard giggling as he danced around and embraced trees.

The former contestant of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition concluded his post with other images of his wife and their dog exploring the woods, as well as one of himself using a camera to capture the serene surroundings.

A few days before turning 58, Pennington posted an Instagram video of himself travelling through the city^/s gorgeous fall foliage.

He captioned the picture, "Aspen, you show-off!!  
He celebrated his big day by posting a photo of himself on Instagram on October 19. "The 58th time around the sun, and I^/m feeling wonderful! Sadly, I had to, "He composed. "But truly, things do keep getting better and better. We appreciate your interest in the journey."

A couple of images from the photo collection showed the well-known carpenter grinning while fishing while dressed in bright red flannel.  
In July 2021, Merrell, a social media manager from Vancouver, received a marriage proposal from Pennington. In November of the same year, the couple exchanged vows in a small ceremony at their Savannah, Georgia, home in front of just eight people.

Pennington first met Merrell in 2010 while he was filming a TV show in Toronto, and they stayed in touch throughout the years through common acquaintances. Pennington most recently appeared in HGTV^/s Ty Breaker and Battle on the Beach.

Early in 2020, they reconnected and chose to spend the COVID-19 pandemic in quarantine together, which is when their romance really started to take off.

"I^/ve long admired Kellee from a distance. She is stunning both inside and out "After they were engaged, Pennington spoke exclusively to PEOPLE. "Fortunately, our paths ultimately converged at the ideal moment. It^/s one of those things where being near someone makes you simply joyful. She altered my perception of marriage, something I had never previously had. I^/m glad I waited for him."
