happy, happy three oh

Happy 30th birthday to my sweet, wonderful husband. It seems somehow fitting that his birthday this year is squeezed between Presidents’ Day and Mardi Gras. Andrew is a former science geek (a hot science geek!) who abandoned two physics degrees to pursue his love of American politics. Right in the middle of that career change, we met at Mardi Gras. Life has been better ever since.

Here’s to 30 more years, and then 30 more after that. Love you, you old man! I’m just glad you’re my old man.

  1. Hooray for Andrew - remind him this is just his first time round being 30 - (my husband keeps saying 40 is the new 30, so…) Rock on, Andrew!

  2. Happy Birthday Andrew! Hoping he has a fabulous day, wahoo!

  3. Happy Birthday Andrew! That cake looks so good. Did the fabulous Janet bake it for you? You are one lucky man.

  4. Happy Birthday! Have a wonderful year.

    It’s my youngest brother’s 16th birthday today as well. Thank goodness we don’t have the tradition of those insane TV worthy parties in Australia…

  5. Hmm, I don’t see thirty candles on that there cake… ah, well, it’d be a lot to blow out anyway!

    Happy Birthday! :)

  6. Awww…happy birthday to Andrew! And look at that huge cake. What a lucky man. :)

  7. Hooray for birthdays!

  8. That cake. Yum. Am very hungry. Must get slice of cake very soon!

    Happy Bday Andrew!

  9. Yay! Happy birthday to your honey!

    1977 was such a good year!

  10. That’s so sweet!! Happy birthday, fella! Mmmm… cake…

    My husband turns 30 in April… I’m debating on what to do for him. He kinda dropped the ball on my 30th… and he’s always reminding me that I turned 30 first, will turn 40 first… etc. Jerk. Maybe I won’t do anything.

    What? OH! Sorry. Really, sweet tribute to your guy! And wishing you two a couple more 30th milestones together.

  11. I turned 30 two years ago. I dont have an xbox, but if I did, I’d want 6 guilt-free hours to play it for my birthday. And a steak.

  12. Happy birthday! Hope you saved enough cake for everybody.

  13. Happy Birthday Andrew!

    It’s so much fun being the hott young wife to a sugar daddy! :)

  14. Happy Birthday to you (Andrew)!

  16. The cake looks perfect! Is that a star on top made of chocolate?? Genius.

  17. Happy Birthday!

  18. [...] I gave up on the South Beach Diet (shocking, I know). I wrote about wanting to own a house, not at all knowing that within months we would actually do such a thing. Thank you, housing market downturn. My sweet husband hit the big 3-0 and we went to our cousins’ wedding in the OC. [...]
