Celebrate!!!!

Happy St. Patricks Day!!!!

So today is the day that all the marines have an excuse (not that they need one) to get wasted in the middle of the week, so loud parties, and lots of fun. It also happens to be the love of my lifes birthday. Not just any birthday, his 21st. I'm sure you can all see where this is going.

So, I started this lovely day by inviting my good friend Jamie over to help me dismantle the curtains from the living room windows. We had a lot of fun with that and then I got a call from Katie asking if we wanted to go shopping for her welcome home gift for her husband. So, we all went to Belk, then Ross, then TJ Max. Jamie and I stopped by the Px because I wanted to get Jordans birthday present, which I worked long and hard trying to decide which would be a better fit for him, or one that he would like. I finally found one and bought it, so excited to give it to him when he came home from work.

We all went to El Cerros for dinner and Brian and Chris were there and Jordan ordered his first alcoholic beverage (tequila something) and we sang happy birthday and everything. Then the guys decide that since it's Hendrix's 21st. birthday, they needed to kidnap him and take him out partying. This is wonderful. I'm thrilled. I want him to be social. I want him to loosen up and have fun with his friends, so I tell him that I think he should go. So he goes.

Saga drives me home and the night is still young. None of the days events hurt my feelings until I came into the living room and saw the knife I painstakingly sought out for him, sitting on the coffee table. I hope he has fun, really I do. I wish that I could have given him a good enough birthday by myself though. :(
