My b-day parties...

Friday night when I got home from work the boys had cleaned the entire house and made me cards and pictures. They had hung a banner sized sign that said "HAPPY B DAY". They even gave me a handwritten certificate that intitles me to a free foot and back massage from them and the seven bucks that their Grandma gave them for helping her out around her house! Wow I was really impressed! I guess the only bad news of the day was that my Mom was not going to watch the Baby that night so I couldn't go out but she said maybe on Saturday night.
We ended up going over to Beth's house and hanging out there. Jose was there and after dinner I found out that he had bought me a Carvel Ice Cream Cake! He had to go home before we had it though and even ended up going to Miami till Sunday night. Beth saved him a piece though. We watched a movie and ended up falling asleep on the couch.
On Saturday I got a call from my brother Brad in Kentucky. My other brother Chris and his family (who reside in North Carolina) were visiting Brad and his family for the weekend. They informed me that they were having cake for my birthday and wanted to know when I could come over! I wish that I could have been there. Later the boys and I went to the pool. After we got home Beth called and asked if we were going out or not. I called mom and she said that they would come by and pick up the Baby. So I was finally out of the house at 9:30pm. I get to Beth's house and we were getting ready to leave when Scout calls me and says that their Dad was there and he wanted to talk to me. I'm like WHAT! Short story is that he made the boys lie and tried to get me to go home. but it didn't work.
Beth and I hit 5th avenue. First we went to McCabe's an irish bar. Then we went to Yabba's a hip hop dance club where we could not dance anywhere without bumping into at least three people on all sides of you. Fun but very crowded. I got a drink spilled all over my leg, Yuk! Next we went to The Spot. It's a little country bar and I actually found someone I know there. A guy that used to work with me named Sean. I said Hi and he gave me a hug and told me Happy Birthday. I miss talking to him! So I go back to where Beth is sitting and all of a sudden this english guy comes over and starts talking to Beth. He ends up buying us drinks and asking her out for lunch on Sunday. I also had another guy that I work with come up to me, Facundo is his name. I asked Beth to play pool with me and she asked English to play. I started out pretty bad and he was missing shots on purpose. Then I only had one ball left and he had just the 8 ball. He lines up his shot and gets it in, and right after the 8 ball the q ball follows it, scratch! He lost and I won! Hey maybe Rachel is rubbing off on me!!! (Rachel is my friend in Little Rock that has recently told me that she is the top female in her league.) We left at closing time and the boys were just fine.
On Sunday We hung out at the house. Went to the pool and then over to my Moms for cake. My brother Kevin, his wife and one of their boys were there along with my Mom, Dad and Grandma.
All in all I had a great B-day. I think the best part was that the boys thought of me when they really didn't have to and they did it all on their own.
Beth still has not gotten her window fixed yet and the English guy couldn't call her on Sunday cause her phone is broken and it turns off all the time. Oh well, Ta ta for now.
