Party Animals - Happy Birthday Aaron!!!

It was 19 years ago when I first celebrated Aaron's birthday with him. We had only been going out for about a month, and the gift I gave him showed just how little I knew him. I selected what I thought was a nice gift - a sweater. What I didn't know was that Aaron detests sweaters. But, being the sport that he is, he wore the sweater once (tied around his waist), and hasn't worn one since. Now that I know him a little better, sweaters have been taken off the list, and replaced with taco dinner and strawberry cake. The kids each gave him his favorite candies - Mike and Ikes from Jordan, Swedish Fish from Kylie, and Sour Patch fruits from Ryan. It was so fun to see the pride and excitement on the kids' faces as Aaron opened each gift. Jordan also wrapped some loose change from around the house, and picked out party hats for all to wear. Kylie handmade some wrapping paper, and I think I know the best gift to give him after all. What he would love more than anything is a clean garage......it may be time for a garage sale. Anyone interested in a 19 year old "lightly used" sweater?

Happy Birthday Aaron! It probably drove you crazy that Aaron covered his butt that one day since I know how much you liked to admire it ...ha ha! Maybe you can make that sweater into a nice pillow or something. You know how I like to recycle stuff!
