33 things

In honor of Andrew's 33rd BIRTHDAY (today), here are 33 things about him (a.k.a. thing I like about Drew):

1) He speaks Russian very well. He'll say his accent isn't what it should be, but when we were in Ukraine he got lots of compliments on it.

2) He's very musical--trombone, guitar, bell choir, ward choir, solos, whatever. He can do it.

3) He's a genuinely nice guy.

4) He can ski and snowboard.

5) I like the way his eyes wrinkle when he smiles.

6) He is an excellent father (and really what's sexier than a guy that dotes on his kids?).

7) He likes cupboards to be completely closed.

8) He's a great dancer--can find the beat, can lead, knows a decent amount of ballroom dance steps.

9) He's freckled.

10) He likes to play all sorts of sports and seems perpetually willing to try new ones.

11) He was a blond toddler

12) He's smart.

13) He almost never loses his keys or wallet.

14) He expresses his feelings. I love that he and his siblings say "I love you" to each other.

15) He's a bit of a backseat driver (with me), but he admits it.

16) He can drive a stick shift.

17) He has blue-gray eyes.

18) I like the way his tousled hair looks in the morning.

19) He likes to read science fiction/fantasy books.

20) He cracks his knuckles (drives me crazy).

21) He is a bit amusing when he is frustrated/angry.

22) He's funny even when it isn't frustrated/angry.

23) He is great with directions.

24) He is artistic--painting, throwing pots.

25) He says quirky things like "little piggies" for toes.

26) Excellent editor (good with grammar, spelling, and content).

27) He sometimes wishes he could just be a ski bum, but he is a good family man too.

28) He is scuba certified.

29) He actually blogs occasionally--which is something I did not think he would do.

30) He dreams of writing a book someday. I think it'll be really good.

31) His favorite color is green.

32) He likes hard candy like jolly ranchers and fruity candy canes. He also likes fruity gum.

33) He can make delicious pasta sauce from scratch with no recipe.

Happy Birthday Drew. You do have a great husband Jill! It's actually ironic all the things he and Will have in common, though, notably, #26 is definitely NOT one of them :)
