Oh - this is cute. It's nice to hear about someone who loves their spouse rather than someone who is annoyed by their spouse!

Happy Birthday to your hubby! He sounds like such a stud! ;)

Grandma W. said...

What more can we ask for our kids and grandkids????!!!! Please keep telling each other how much you love one another and you won't have any problems as you go through life! You have an excellent example in your parents! After 60 years, Papa and I have probably become a bit laxadaisicle about telling each other, but we just know!! Aren't we all the lucky ones?
We love you! And, sorry we didn't get to see more of you while you were here! I thought you were going on Tuesday! We will see you when we get down that way!
