The hubs turns 36!

The lovely old man turned 36 this weekend and I just had to surprise him once again. The hubs has always, always wanted to go to a mystery dinner theater show, so that's exactly what he got. I took him to see "Godfather of the Bride." It was put on by a company called Hunt's Mysteries at Spaghetti Mama's. He had no idea until we got there and walked in. He thought we were just going to dinner with some friends and that was it. We walked in and he was stunned. Heck, I am still stunned that I kept it hush, hush for 3 WEEKS! That's impressive for me. I am horrible at keeping surprises for a long time. He had a blast, as did the rest of us, especially when he got to play a part in the show as a police officer. Funny stuff!

Here's the man of the hour ready and roaring to blow out his candles on his "36" cupcake cake.
He wanted me to just make some rum sauce for the spumoni ice cream he picked for his birthday treat, but the kids really wanted a cake, so I made these rainbow cupcakes with chocolate frosting. Oh man, were they good, too good, you know I only have 4 weeks left until the big 5K, so I need to watch it or I'll have to be pushed to the finish line.

Here's what these beauties look like in the middle. The kids thought they were awesome as well as the big kid of the house. Here's to many more birthdays for the hubs. Many more happy, and healthy lifetime moments!

My hubs the comedian!

I know everyone thinks their hubby is great, but my hubs is incredible... at making me laugh and being a real comedian. He's like one of my kids, whenever I'm having a tough moment he says something or does something that just makes me crack up in hysterics.

He just thinks of himself as the funniest guy and here is an example of what he thought up over the weekend as we were planting the garden...

ZUCCHINI-the two piece of vegetables

CRAB-APPLE- the seafoood of fruit trees.

H-I-L-A-R-I-O-U-S!

That's just a snipit of the hubs overworking brain. He spits out stuff like this to me ALL the time. Usually I don't like to brag about him-mainly cause I don't want his head to get any bigger-,but he keeps my life interesting and comedic and that in itself deserves to be bragged about and for me to sing praises for the man. I love the hubs and LOVE that he can get me to smile and laugh at any moment.

Loving my husband!

I just wanted to thank my hubby for helping me out so much this weekend. I have the WORSE sore throat in my life and I just can't seem to shake it. I can't swallow without tears and it makes me not want to do anything. It hurts to drink, swallow, eat, and even talk-which makes it hard to do anything with the kiddies.

He has been a great daddy this weekend, not only taking care of the whole bunch and me, BUT he has also played with each and every kid. They have all had their daddy one on one time. Isn't he the GREATEST! Thanks hubby! I love you always!

And the Award Goes To...

This talented, smart, sexy man- MY HUBBY! So I have to brag about my loving, adorable, very SMART husband. He won an award-well the project he worked on did. He did the design work and engineering on a bridge(sr-66) and the project won in the 1-10 million dollar category. His office gets a plaque and everything. Needless to say he is very proud of himself, as am I. He should be proud. He is a great engineer and he now has something else to put on his resume to brag about. I love this man and am very proud of him. If you see him or talk to him you should congratulate him. It is a stressful business to be in and when you accomplish something like this it deserves to be praised.
