Happy Birthday Kristine!!!

Shaun here-

Yes, one day after Kara’s birthday, our favorite (OK, MY favorite blogger) celebrates her birthday. For her birthday this year, she got the greatest gift: She got to get away from me for a few nights! She’s been hinting. The subtle suitcase packing in the wee hours of the morning while the van warms up in the driveway, the pile of Dear Shaun letters under my pillow….I pick up on these sort of things. So when she said she wanted to go visit her mom and sister for a few days for her birthday, we threw an assortment of anti-depressants in a tic-tac container (what’s the point of not being depressed if your breath still stinks?) and off she went. Granted, she had to take the girls with her since I have to work in the coal mines all week…but still.

So, for my beautiful bride, HAPPY BIRTHDAY. The stripper I ordered you was great. It was awkward having Apollo only dancing for me, Tyler, and the two dogs, though. The custom two-tier wedding cake shaped like a Nikon D300 was delicious.

I love you VERY much, and hopefully you know how much I appreciate you every day. But today I’m saying it by messing with your blog header and blognapping for a day.

I love you, and hope everyone takes a minute to tell you Happy Birthday!!! Give your mom and sis a hug for me. Gotta run, Apollo’s waiting to take me to dinner.
