Happy, Happy Birthday Boys

Today is a very special day in our family's life; firstly it is my sweet hubby's 60th birthday and it is also our second grandson's birthday. Mr. B turn 9 today; it was a pretty great birthday present to be born on the same day as my man. We celebrated the birthdays on Saturday evening with a big family party; there is nothing we like more than to be with our entire group.  Mr. B is quite a young man, full of fun and laughter as well as a very tender heart.  He loves animals, especially dogs(like his nana)and I can easily see him being a rancher or farmer when he is an adult.  There aren't enough words for me to describe my man, but hunk of burning love comes to mind loving, loyal, faithful, patient, fun are all words that sum up his character. I am so incredibly blessed by both these guys; well for that matter all the men in our family.

When I pondered what to get my man, it was an easy choice.  His cell phone was 4 1/2 yrs old and so outdated.  Several of our friends and family have Apple's newest & greatest, iphone and although my hubby isn't drawn to the newest electronics, this one caught his eye.  He loved how big the numbers/digits were and of course SIRI didn't hurt.  For those of you not familiar with this, it is a voice activated "assistant" that can send texts, get info, set calendar dates and reminders, and dial for you.  Typically, my hubby doesn't like me spending money on him and will often say things like "you spent too much or you shouldn't have" but when he opened his present-which was a pair of new shorts with the phone in the pocket, he was so excited.  I never heard a word about it and since he's had it, he's used the phone more than I've ever seen him.  Texts are no big deal now, and for this wife, it is wonderful to see how happy he is with his present.
Tonight we are going to see Jersey Boys with some close friends and it should be such fun.  Of course, I'm sworn to secrecy that it is his birthday but I think one other person knows.  My dear man has given me 34 wonderful years together and I'm thrilled to be able to celebrate him as well as Mr. B.
May we have many, many more together!
