Holy Cow! He's 60!

Since my Dad's heart surgery last year, my Mom has become a little obsessed with cows --
and for good reason.  
Dad's replacement valve was is a "Bovine Valve."

Today is his 60th Birthday, in addition expressions like "Cowabunga!" "Holy Cow" and being "put out to pasture," Mom hung 60 pictures of Dad around the kitchen. 
{like mother like daughter.  we can't resist a good number themed party.}
Naturally she had to add some cow pictures to the mix.  These two are my favorite.


Wish we were there to join the party!!

And your birthday wouldn't be complete without a rousing round of:

"Daddy!  
How I love ya How I love ya!  
My dear ol' Daddy!"

  5. I was momentarily disappointed that Dad's wasn't a pig valve (oh the plans I had for that theme?!) but COWS have proved to be equally, if not more fun! (sure glad that you didn't mention that i called him a "dumb ox" after doing something totally foolish right after his open-heart surgery!)
