Happy Birthday, to you! (My sweet and wonderful Jason, that is!) We had such a fun time! We got to have a party with Jason's family the day before he's actual birthday. We ate cake and shared stories. Jason got a new Cabella's jacket and lots of money! Okay, lots to me, anyway! It was fun to see and talk with everyone. Then I took off the day of his birthday so we could party just the two of us. He got to sleep in (the lucky duck!) but I had a final... or at least, so I thought! When I got there I found out they had moved it to Wednesday morning. So home again, home again lickedy split! I made Jason a bowl of cereal and brought it to him in bed. He laughed and laughed that I couldn't even make breakfast! But who can say no to cereal?? C'mon now, I know what pleases! After that we played some video games and got ready for the day. Nice and relaxed. Then we went to sell back our school books-- happy finals week!! We spent about 500.00 and got a little under 200.00 back. Whatever. It's nice to have a little bit! We went out to Olive Garden for lunch, because they have such WONDERFUL soup, salad and bread sticks! We got to just laugh and talk. Afterwards I even got Jason to do a bit of Christmas shopping with me! But after all that it was time to relax again. We need to have lots of time to relax, I decided!! So we rented a red box movie and chilled at home on the couch for a bit. Once our tummies started growling we got in touch with my parents and decided to go out to Dragon Hill. Yummy yummy Chinese food!! My sister Wendi even came, too. We all had fun trying to figure out how they got a carrot into the shape of a flower! My parents gave Jason a new Star Trek ornament for our tree! (Except... it doesn't really match my theme... maybe he'll have to get his own tree next year!) Since we're such night owls, after dinner we rented another red box and watched that until early morning hours. Such a great day!
It feels like we have so much to celebrate this time of year, Christmas and the joy that comes with it- birthdays and New Years to set new goals for ourselves. So much happiness.
Speaking of happiness... Jason and I have been married five months today. I can't even believe it! Sometimes it feels like we've just always been married. But then others I still wake up next to him and think, "When did I ever get so lucky?" It's fun to think this is the time of year I wanted to get married-- sometime before Christmas in December. Everything seems so much prettier with the lights and snow. And here I am, able to enjoy it with my honey! :) Ahhh....
