Happy Birthday Allyn

Happy Birthday to my other half...Allyn David.
I fell in love with him dragging Fremont Street 36 years ago...and every day I love him more.
He is...

thoughtful He brought me flowers last Saturday for no reason at all.
kind & genuine He genuinely loves people and wants everyone to be happy, healthy and doing well.
loving He loves without limits. (& he tells me he loves me at least 5 times + a day)
good (he is almost too good!) He was once accused of swearing at a church softball game about 30 years ago (the ref was ready to kick him out of the game) and I charged out onto the field and said, "this man has never said a swear word in his life!" The guilty kid finally came out from the dugout and said, " I was the one who said it, sorry."
spiritual He lives what he believes. Everything he does reflects his love for God.
funny He is witty and quick...and definitely a "pun master"! He makes us laugh everyday.
handsome Amy had a friend over a few days ago and he saw a picture of Allyson and her Dad and asked, "Is that her boyfriend?" Really.are.you.kidding.me? All of the girls have been asked at one time or another if their dad was their boyfriend! He just laughs and says, "Oh, they just need glasses."
Wonderful Dad & Grampa & Husband Simply the best.

Allyn David, you took my breath away 36 years ago and you still do everyday...
I am so lucky you are mine. I.Love.You. Happy Birthday Sweetheart XO

We had a great BBQ and Swim party in honor of the birthday boy...

The Slade Six did the "Grampa Al Rap". It was hilarious!

It's Grampa Al's birthday, the big 5-5
We think he was around when they did the hand jive.
That's Grampa Al (sh sh shsh)
That's Grampa Al (sh sh shsh)
Grampa Al's a tease
Yeah a super huge one
He teases and he jokes and thinks it's really fun.
Grampa Al is so strange...
He forgets our name!
He calls us Tom, Bob, Bear Woman, and Fred
Nicknames for all of us and even our friends.
That's Grampa Al (sh sh shsh)
That's Grampa Al (sh sh shsh)
Grampa Al can be a great Kermit the Frog
His favorite kind of weather is rain and fog!
He's got great hair, which Grama calls a "BUSH"
He enjoys using a towel
And wacking us in the tush.
That's Grampa Al (sh sh shsh)
That's Grampa Al (sh sh shsh)
Big Al and "the Fox" are little love birds,
We're glad Grama picked him even though he's a nerd!
He eats lots of greens and doesn't care for sugar,
He sings Christmas songs, even in the summer.
Yep Grampa's super, he really is the best,
Even when he gives the dreaded pinky test!
That's Grampa Al (sh sh shsh)
That's Grampa Al (sh sh shsh)
Grampa gives zerberts and huge monster kisses,
He tickles us like crazy, til' Grama says "quit it!"
Sometimes Grampa likes to bite,
He took a nibble of Kate and gave her quite a fright.
He can swim forever under the water and we can all agree
He's a pretty awesome father.
That's Grampa Al (sh sh shsh)
That's Grampa Al (sh sh shsh)
Well that's the story and that's our rhyme
Time to say goodbye and leave you with a line.
Grampa's ssssssuuuuuuppppeeeerrrrr ssssssuuuuuuppppppeeeeerrrrrmmmmaaaaaannnn!
Happy Happy Happy Happy Happy Birthday!
