Happy Birthday to my hubby

Just about every time I give Andy a card, I try to think of the cheesiest, sappiest, (often annoying) name I can to use on the envelope. Sometimes he pretends not to notice ... sometimes he laughs ... most often, he rolls his eyes. This year, I don't think he even saw it. And I have to say, it was a pretty good one. So, now I'm putting it on my blog to make sure he notices. Happy Birthday to my Hubby Bubby Birthday Bear. Yep, I'm pretty proud of that one. It'll be hard to top ... I'm thinking the next one will have to involve a bunny :)

Since today's his day, I probably should quit now and not embarrass him any further. So, to pay tribute to his birthday, here's a look at the year he was born ...
