Well we’ll just say he’s 40-something :) Last Saturday was Jarrod’s birthday and the one thing I wanted to accomplish was for him to have a quiet, relaxing day to do whatever he wanted!!! He started off the morning with a surprise appointment I had made for a hot shave and a haircut. He loves going to enjoy times like this but let’s face it with work, kids, taking care of the house, and everything else he has going on he never gets any “me time”. So the kids and I headed off to cousin Parker’s birthday party. Later that afternoon we went back of to my aunt and uncle’s house who have an awesome theater/media room so Jarrod got to watch the UT game on a big screen with beer in hand and no interruptions!! At one point I went down there and noticed he was all alone, I said “aren’t you lonely” he just laughed and said “NO!!!!” After the game he decided to join the rest of us and enjoy his birthday celebration. We cooked out, the kids played outside until like 10:00 at night, we enjoyed a few beverages and a delicious cake!!
So for Jarrod’s gift I decided to give him something he’d never expect and be thrilled about…I got him tickets to the TN/LSU game on October 15th in Knoxville! He was blown away!!! I also had some pictures done of the kids in their TN gear and had it framed. I taped an envelope on the back of the frame that had a flyer I made with the game info on it. I talked with the people we are getting the tickets from and we both agreed they are too valuable to mail so I just made something on the computer for him. And of course you know me… if I’m going to theme something I’m going to go all out so it wouldn’t be complete without a TN birthday cake! It was a great celebration and it’s not over yet he still has October 15th to look forward to!!
Ready to party…wearing my UT bow!
