27 years ago my soul-mate was entering this world and announced his existence with screaming his little head off and getting his cute tush slapped. This morning it was pretty much the same situation.(totally kidding)

Today my husband is finally catching up to me in the age department. Yes, he would like to think I’m a cougar and that I’m robbing the cradle, but I’m actually only a couple of months older. He loves this about our relationship and can not wait until the day I turn 30 so that he can make jokes at my expense while he is still 29. Since I love him so much I let him get away with all the teasing. So, in honor of his birthday I figured I would post about something he loves.

So, while he loves cars and fishing and all sorts of manly things one of the things that surprised me the most about him was his love of……park benches. I’m not sure why, but my husband loves them. He always wants to sit on them with me and just people watch. Last year for his birthday my parents got him a park bench for our new house and it now resides in our backyard.

While searching for park benches I found the most fabulous pictures courtesy of Brooks Brothers. This fall, Brooks Brothers decided to pay tribute to NYC’s Central Park and partner with the Central Park Conservancy and it’s adopt a bench program. I think it was a match made in heaven.
(just like me and my hubby) Here are just some of the breathtaking images:

Happy Birthday Darling! xoxo
