Jay's Birthday

It's already Monday, so I thought I would reflect on the weekend. Jay's 26th birthday was on Saturday. We had a very exciting day of sleeping in until 8:00, then sitting and watching a painter paint our kitchen, hallway, and stairwell bright white. After he was done, the morning got real exciting as we watched the paint dry... literally. Then Jay hadn't had enough fun yet, so we decided to make a frozen pizza for lunch. He sat infront of the oven and watched the pizza cook. He got excited when the cheese started to "breath". To lighten up the mood a bit, I put candles in his pizza. We needed a little bit more excitement. Jay then got to open his presents. We made a deal that we wouldn't do presents since we took the trip to Ireland. I obeyed for the most part, but had to do a little something. After opening a pack of cream soda, a tub of gummies, and a few other things, I think he was a happy camper! In the afternoon, we watched the paint dry some more, and then finally decided it was dry enough for us to leave. We took an adventurous trip to the gym to get on the computers. We talked to our parents for awhile and then made an exciting trip back to the house. Because we had so much fun all day long, we decided to settle down and go to a nice Italian restaurant for supper. After supper, we popped a movie into my computer and watched it... as we fell asleep in our chairs. After a bowl of ice cream and more birthday candles, we decided it was time for bed. And to end the night... we were asleep by about 10:00. I tell you what... I throw really exciting birthday parties!! We just had to keep reminding ourselves that Ireland was our birthday present. It was well worth the sacrifice!!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
