Handsome Husbands Birthday

Friday, August 21st was the Handsome Husband's 51st birthday. He is loving, affectionate, sensitive, smart, athletic, generous, and compassionate. He loves his family, his harley, working out and riding his mountain bike.
On Friday night, Shawn and Marlene took him to Roy's for his birthday. He loved the extra touches at the table that Roy's did to celebrate his birthday.
They had these "Happy Birthday Bob" flyers in all the menus (at our table), confetti on the table and when he received his birthday dessert, the plate said, "Happy Birthday, Bob". They then took the picture of us above and gave it to us. Nice! By the way, the food was excellent! After dinner we went to the movies and saw Inglourious Basterds (I know I'm spelling it wrong, they spelled it wrong) a Quentin Taratino movie. It was very graphically violent. The story is much more than what is portrayed in the trailers and Brad Pitt was funny, but it did not center around his character. I would not recommend this movie unless you are not squeamish and don't mind violence, killing and you always wanted to see Hitler and the Nazi's get dished to them what they dished to others. I had to cover my eyes and look away many times! But, I can't say I disliked the movie, it was interesting and funny in parts. It kind of reminded me of a Guy Richie movie in the way it all came together.

He can be a goof on occasion! Likes to show off the big guns.

On Saturday, after moving Katie into her new apartment, we went out to dinner at Inka Mama (we had two delicious dishes to share, they were so yummy!) and then had cake at home.

Happy Birthday, Handsome Husband!

We'll keep it stock!

In 2002 I was at the cheer gym waiting to pick up my daughter.  I was standing with a group of women talking and one of our friends came up and asked us if we would like to buy a raffle ticket supporting CHOC and that they were five dollars.  The group quickly dispersed and I was left with my friend who was selling the tickets.  I bought one raffle ticket because all I had on me at the time was $5.00.  I quickly forgot all about it.  A couple of months later, I received a phone call telling me I had won a Harley Davidson.  My handsome husband was EXCITED!!!! At first he felt guilty receiving such a great gift and said we should sell it.  I said no, keep it.  Then he said he would keep it through the summer and then sell it.  I said no, keep it.  Then he said he would keep it stock!  Hah!  Famous last words!!!!  Seven years later (he just picked it up this weekend) the bike looks like this:


He is so happy!  He just picked it up from being painted and some other things (at a certain point my eyes glaze over and I start to zone out from all the chroming that is going on.  According to the handsome husband everything that could  be chromed has been chromed).  The handsome husband actually uttered these words this weekend, "It is all done".  We'll see!
