Happy Birthday!

So, for Lance’s birthday I bought him a tablet so that he can start downloading books and such. I was really clever in my placement of this gift. I put it in the kitchen drawer and set an alarm. I called him about 10 minutes after the alarm was supposed to go off… but he was outside feeding the animals… So, I waited a little while and still no “Thank you call”… So, I called him and said, “Hey, do me a favor – check the drawer by the oven and see if there is a sharpie in there so that I can write the girls names on their dance outfits.” He said, “nope”.  So, I said “ok, check the drawer by the stove”.  I thought perhaps – since it was really early maybe he forgot the difference between the stove and the oven ;). He said, “yeah – there is one in there”. And, then we said our goodbyes… I thought and thought about what could be another excuse to call him and ask him to look in the drawer by the oven . I had the perfect idea.  I called him back, and this time, I asked him, “could you look one more time because I think I forgot my underwear in there”.  He asked, “what is it with these drawers and why would you put your underwear in there?” I replied, “umm, because I have a hot date tonight.” He said, “oh, is there something that you are wanting me to see in this drawer.” I said, “yes”. He said, “O, I saw that earlier when you told me to look for the sharpie, but I thought I accidentally discovered it, so I was going to act surprised when you gave it to me later.” … Hmmm, maybe I really should have put some underwear in there! Glad we know how to have fun! Happy Birthday to my best friend!  I am also thankful that 10 years ago today, I said, “Huh? What? How did you?… and then finally, “ummm…yes, I will marry you”.  There is never a dull moment with him by my side.
