A happy 50th birthday

Tomorrow is hubbies 50th birthday! We celebrate this tonight already, allthough Michal won't be home as she is sailing to Cyprus this weekend. As DH loves to run and ran over 50 marathons I wanted to use a (digi)stamp of a runner and got this one from Arthur. So hereby a very happy birthday!

p.s. hubby loved the card :)
