Happy Happy Birthday Matt!

It was impossible for Matt (co-worker/friend) to NOT have a good birthday after the week/day he had.

He got a promotion yesterday (WAHOO) and he turns the big 3-0 this weekend!

Not only that he also bought a house recently and is about to get a puppy... shhh... we are working on easing him into this :)

So in order to celebrate his big birthday, we thought it would be a fun idea to get him a singing telegram.  When someone suggested this at first, I'm not going to lie, I thought it was a joke.  I mean how often have you ever heard some say that OR ever seen one? I never have! But heck, why not?

We requested a "Jane of the Jungle" telegram and asked for her to be conservative with her clothes since we do work in a big office after all. This is what we ended up with:

1. A woman who is well beyond 45+
2. Wearing a leopard leotard (with shiny nude tights and grandma sandals
3. Who couldn't sing

It made me realize I could do this as a part time job if this lady could do it.  One of you probably could to considering I bet you are all better singers than both her and I combined! 

Surprise Matt! We got you a 50 year old for your birthday!

Matt: What in the world is she planning on doing with that monkey?

Matt getting a monkey kiss

Jane giving matt a jungle hickey.... interesting! 

Jane: Please marry me, no one will love my singing as much as you

Me Jane gonna rip this phone book

ARHHHH....  

Jane: AHA I did it Matt: Holy crap did you see that?

This woman is a whackadoo

Birthday Boy! 

Oh and P.S. yes you see Coors Light on his desk. He loves it and someone brought it as a birthday gift.

Happy Early Birthday Matt!

Age is Only a Number

To most people... but to my dear friend Tricia it's adding another pill to her medicine carry bag ;) For years Tricia has been battling arthritis and she is only 26!!! Crazy stuff.  Even having arthritis she still managed to swim all four years at KU (University of Kansas NOT Kentucky). Knowing that she is a medicine junky, well not really... our friends Kelly and Kate got Tricia the cutest little medicine carry case from Coach.

As for me, I knew IMMEDIATELY what I wanted to get Tricia for her birthday. A Jodi Picoult book.  The NEW one called "Sing You Home."  I remembered it recently came out and was praying she hadn't read it yet after I decided on what to get her.  To my surprise, she HADN'T read it. WAHOO!

So this post is to wish my good friend Tricia a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Cheers to many more to come!

Happy Birthday to ME

As some of you may or may not know.  Today was my birthday! The big 2-6.

In the years past we got our birthday's off from work, sort of like a free vacation day that doesn't count against any of our vacation.  This year they decided to do away with that policy and take on other random holidays which are equally as good, but of course when it hits my birthday I'm wishing I had the day off!

The best part about having a birthday on a work day is the fact all my co-workers/friends bring in treats when we celebrate birthdays.  I was up to my ears in yummy food that I stuffed in my mouth all day long, and was given some beautiful flowers!

After work I headed to dinner and a movie with my girlfriends.  We saw "The Adjustment Bureau" which was pretty good, a little cheesy at moments, but kept my attention.

All and all I had a fantastic birthday, aside from the fact Walt is not here to celebrate with me.  He's watching the practice round of The Masters which I GUESS is sort of a big deal :)

I got me some great gifts to boot too! Check out one of them here.  I guess my family and friends know me pretty well too because both my co-workers and my sister got me a camera strap from PaisleyPeepers.  Check them out here (co-workers) and here - the red rose camera strap (my sister Katie), both of which will go perfectly with my two cameras I've been taking all my pictures with!
