Happy Birthday Stu!

Today is my husband's 40th birthday! I am so thankful to still have him! He has had a few close calls lately! In fact, last Wednesday night on his way home from church he was attacked (at least it was attempted). He was taking people home and his last stop is down a long dark road. On the way down he heard something crash into the side of the van, even made his deaf passenger jump! He was slowing down to check it out and he saw some guys hiding in the ditch, so he decided to floor it and keep going! He assumed they threw something at the van trying to get him to stop so they could rob him and that was confirmed later after talking to the police. Our van had a huge dent and the paint is gone, but thankfully Stu and his passengers were safe!
We had a surprise party for him yesterday. He was surprised, he didn't suspect anything! I about made myself sick with the anxiety of planning it and keeping it from him! I had fun, but I am glad it's over. He got plenty of Coke and chocolate to last him...a few days,maybe. Everyone here has learned that he loves those two things. We had lots of old pictures, a skit to make fun of him and some fun games, like pin the toupee on the bald guy.




Jesse told me this morning, after seeing my dress laid out for church, " I like all of your dresses, even your black spy girl dresses". I guess he had been watching to many spy movies. :)

  4. Good job surprising your hubby, Donna! I know they are hard to surprise! I LOVE the photo with the walker and the Coke IV! But the one with Stu and all the people standing around him probably singing is the best! :)
