A big happy one to you, Pablo!

 

I've always said "I'm no Pablo" and today, I can also say I'm not another year older, either!  :D

 

I hope it's a great one. Enjoy.

Happy Birthday, Pablo!  In my eyes, 60 is still a kid. :laugh2:  70 is when you begin feeling old. Don't forget to share your cake (cupcake) with Chi Chi. :)

Happy Birthday Pablo!, I posted one HB earlier but it apparently didn't stick, maybe it was in the "No bog zone?"
