Birthday Couple!

Hello all!  I hope you all are doing well!  I know we have been VERY busy around here, and it just does not seem to let up.  Just trying to squeeze in a few things here and there, on top of all the other things going on in our crazy lives.  I love being busy, but sometimes it can get to you and you just need to rest a bit.  Anyway, part of my busy-ness is due to procrastination.  Then when you have procrastinated and others things get added to the pile suddenly you are really going nuts!  I am sure none of you have this problem!   Well, I just found out this week that my hubby's Uncle and his wife had their first wedding anniversary...so I quickly put together a card for them.  I was in such a hurry, that I failed to get a picture!  Humph!  Then I find out that both of their birthdays are coming up just a week later...so I have made them both a card and this time I got pictures!  Plus, we have had several graduates this year, and more birthdays and in between all of this is Father's Day cards.  Whew!  Anyways, here are the birthday cards for our Uncle and Aunt!
