AW: birthday present from DH!
It's my birthday. I'm 34. Sob. My ovaries are drying up (hell, they suck anyway), we've been trying to have a baby for more than 3 years, and I'm going grey.
But we finally live in a place we love, and in celebration of our new hometown, DH bought me an amazing birthday present.
A local muralist, Ryan Henry Ward, is making a splash in our neighborhood. He paints empty spaces with whimsical, colorful murals with messages like "War no more" and "Compassion brings security." I walk by several murals a day and I always smile. DH went to a local gallery, and bought me a painting!! I love it!
Here are some links to some of the murals:

And our new painting!

Re: AW: birthday present from DH!
That is a very sweet and thoughtful gift. Happy Birthday!
what a thoughtful dh you have! gold star to him
also i hope you have a great rest of your birthday weekend!
Your DH is making me look bad by getting something he knew you'd love.
BTW, had you seen the painting before? ?What does it mean/represent to you? ?These days, I can't help but think of Palin when I see a moose. ?;)?
happy b-day! i've been going grey since 26 so don't feel too bad about that

When I see moose I think of Vermont...specifically two that were down on the highway last fall!
Happy Birthday ..... and you're still young.
