Awesome news, like an early birthday presant for my husband.
 
A recent job he did for a helicopter business has paid dividends unthought of.
 
The type of helicopters are called Robinsons, one of the safest world wide helicopters produced.
 
The Robinson company has beens searching for photos to use in its 2010 calendar and the news came yesterday they have chosen one of hubbies shots for April!

OMG this is the best news ever, the best coverage ever for what he does and also the business he did the work for.
 
Its not paying, who cares, he gets the kudos on the photo and the back page of the calendar as well as a shrit - some might go pooo get paid yeh sure I'd love the money but you cannot buy coverage like that!
 
So I am stoked for hubby, he's a little shocked, he didn't think the shot was that great but, then again he's a perfectionsit.
 
To celebrate that and his birthday I've thrown caution with cash to the wind and we're having a BBQ bash tomorrow afternoon, I'm happy about it now, yesterday I was a little un nerved by lifes little challenges of late but somehow I realised the universe will take care of it if I put it out there, put my hand up!
 
It has, a wonderful affirmation from as far afield as that lightens the load.  As for hubbies birthday gift? not sure, I'm taking a look tomorrow for something early in the morning.

    That's awesome!  What a perk!  He does beautiful work, so no doubt the picture is a good one.

    Thanks Uni ~ You know I think its just what he needed, a little reminder that he's on the right track.

    Congrats to hubby!  My only downside to this post is that I can't be there for that party.  Hope you find just the right surprise for him on time, but if not, then just tell him it's on it's way and think longer!

    (Oh....how about a photo album with this winning photo as a start, then fill in with all his other best photos?  Maybe in scrapbook form with comments and mementos along the way?)

    Too cool Lucy, I bet that's just so awesome, and such an amazing lift for the both of you!  Never know, maybe it'll be an opportunity for bigger things to come depending on who sees it.  :-)

    I am so so thrilled for you and hubby and REALLY wish I could crash that BBQ :)

    I AM happy for you and hubby - and as Fraggles has just said - I wouldnt mind crashing  in on that BBQ either - maybe we could jump over the fence - or has Axle been trained to bit ankles yet?
