Happy Birthday to dear hubby!!

Today is dear hubby's birthday. He is a young 52 today. Don't tell him I said young because I always tease him about being older than me!!!! He is five years older than I am but I remember once when I was 34 and he was 39 I told him he was ten years older because 34 was closer to 30 and 39 was closer to 40 and that made the difference 10 years. I thought that was completely logical? What do you think?? I think he's pretty cute even if he has more wrinkles and gray hair! You know he even does dishes!!! He's a keeper.

Tonight after work Tim and I are taking him out to our favorite restaurant. We always order the same thing. Tim will get a burger. Rich and I will get steak tips. Rich will have a stuffed quahog and I'll get french onion soup! Talk about falling into a routine!

This is a busy time of year for birthdays in my family. In four and a half week's time my daughter, son, husband, niece, son in law and granddaughter all have a birthday! It's almost worse than Christmas on the pocket book!!

I'm headed in to school again today. I have the hardest part of my room done. I still have a few things to put away and then set up for the first day of school. I took a mentor training class this summer. We have a new teacher in Kindergarten and I will be her mentor this year. Tomorrow morning we have a meeting and then I think lunch. :) I'm looking forward to doing this. Even if it hadn't been me I would still be offering any help or assistance that I could.

I hope you are all have a good day. If I don't get to visit you this morning I'll check in later today.

take care,
Dawn

Happy Birthday to you Hubby!! He is very cute...and very fine for 52! And does dishes...definitely a keeper! ;o) Hope you have wonderful evening out celebrating. It's fun to get your favorites when eating out, especially on a grand day, like a birthday. It's funny how birthdays fall in line like that, it's the same with my family, on both side! Oh, my hubby & I ARE 10 years apart..He's 10 years older than I am...He just turned 46 this summer, I'll 36 in December...Oh,my! But I do have to tease him...But since he does do the dishes too and much else, he's a keeper! ;o) Happy Day, my friend ((HUGS))

Happy Birthday to you Rich!! Yep, does dishes...definite keeper!

We get in a rut too, whenever we eat at a place we always seem to get the same things....we need to "break out of the box" and try new things.....lol

Hope you have a great day at school.

Hi Dawn,
Happy birthday to your hubby. Hope you enjoye your meal tonight.

I'm glad you got the worst of your room done...the little details are fun, and if they don't get done, sometimes it doesn't really matter!
Have a great day,
Diane

Happy b'day to your young hubby.

What is a quahog?

Lunch and dinner out today? You might get spoiled!

Tag, you're it! I can't wait to see how you respond to the quirky tag!

Tell your hubby "Happy B-day from Blogland!"
We are in such a rut at our fav Mexican restaurant, the waiter brings our drinks to the table when we are seated, because he KNOWS what we will drink. Then he asks if we want to see a menu, or have "the usual". One day I ordered my enchiladas with a different sauce, and he asked was I sure, because I usually had green chile sauce!

Happy Birthday to Rich!!! He is the cutest! :-)

I'm glad to hear your room is coming along nicely. You'll have to post some pictures when it is all done. I keep meaning to take pictures of my room to post, but I think I am going to wait until later in September when I actually have stuff up on my bulletin boards. Right now, the walls are rather bare! ;-)
