The Mr. is turning the big 34!! Weeks ago I told him I had a "hint" for his birthday present. I told him his gift was shiny. Oh man..... he thought he was getting a new watch. WRONG.
I had his childhood best bud fly in town from Nebraska. While The Mr. was golfing with his dad.....I bought party supplies for the weekend, picked up his buddy from the airport, and set the scene for when he returned. The Mr.'s shiny present jumped in the pool and put a big red bow on his "shiny" head!!!!! and we waited for the reveal!!!!!
The surprise was a success!!! The Mr. jumped in the pool all smiles and said "what's this guy doing here?"
We met a few other childhood friends out for an evening of laughs, old high school stories, and dancing! (Only dancing for the girls of course....... the boys couldn't get away from the pool tables!!!!) I don't ever see friends from high school since I grew up about an hour away from my old town. But The Mr. is still so close to most of his childhood buds. Any time we go out for dinner or to meet friends...... he sees someone he knows from growing up!!!! I think it is neat. I could listen to their "young and dumb" stories all night long!!!!!
Please note that I look like a drowned rat...... I was a dancing queen!!!!!
After several games of pool we headed back to our house and had......LATE NIGHT SNACKS! Chips, dip, sandwiches, basically anything we could get our hands on!!!!
We have a fun filled weekend planned. I'm so glad my hubs is getting this special time with his friend. He told me last night that it was one of the greatest gifts he has ever received. Mission accomplished.
