Happy Birthday, MSH

The previously promised photos are up!

This is the blog I intended for today, but the tomato thing was on my mind. But this one will be on top, so hopefully, it will get all the attention it deserves.

Today is My Sweet Husband's birthday! I love this guy more than I can tell you. He's kind and smart and funny. He has strong moral convictions and a big heart, oh, and he's cute too. Even when he does this:


Stepping in front of my camera while I'm trying to take a photo of a blooming cherry tree, saying, "Oh, what, were you trying to take a picture of something?". Butthead.

But, I love him because even though he does these things, they're funny and he's adorable. He's always been adorable. Just look at this and tell me I'm wrong.


This picture makes me want to have 15 babies that look just like this. I can't look at it very often because the neighbor upstairs calls and complains that the ticking of my biological clock is keeping her awake and scaring her cat every time I do.

Oh, and don't tell him, but I'm giving him a party as his gift this year. I've taken all the decorations and plates and cups and balloons, etc. and put them all in a big box that I've wrapped with a note inside telling him about the party. I'll give it to him tonight at dinner. I've had such a hard time keeping this a secret. It's not that I'm afraid that some one else will tell him; it's just that I get so excited that I want to tell him so that I can see his reaction. Hopefully we'll be able to dance at the party because he's always had killer moves. See.

I told you he's cute. And this picture makes me want to have 4o babies, so I never look at it. I wrote this whole post with my eyes closed so I wouldn't have to look at it. Because if I look at it, the seismic activity caused by the ticking would register on the Richter scale.

I love you, MSH. Happy Birthday!

Somebody sounds a little bit smitten. That would be you, my dear.

So how did he react to his "party in a box?"

Thanks for checking in on my. I am so glad you came by.

Thanks for stopping by! I didn't even buy a calendar until the middle of February when Borders put all of theirs on sale for $1. I'm not a cheapskate, I'm just a bit slow, hahaha. You're a step ahead of me!

Thanks to all of you who've stopped by. Unfortunately, it's very difficult to surprise MSH and even when he is surprised, he pretends he isn't. So, he says that he knew about the party, even though no one told him about it. I still haven't figured out whether he was surprised or not. But, the party was a success. It rained, so we moved the festivities indoors and had more people in our home at once than at any other time since we got married.
