Yah yah yah, cue the double rainbow guy
Last weekend was my birthday; one of those unremarkable, mid-decade, you're-too-old-to-care-about-your-birthday-still kind of birthdays. We're still eking by on a single salary, and unemployment has dried up so there were no big plans. We figured, being our frugal new selves, that we'd lump my birthday, Thea's 5th birthday, and valentine's day all into one "celebration." I think we managed to pull it off on a shoestring budget. Check out the decorations at our fĂȘte!
D-dog provided streamers
There was an air show
Panda entertained us with her acrobatics
And the other birthday girl seemed utterly pleased with the whole day.
I guess it works out that the things the birthday girls want to do most, cost us very little. I believe they call us "cheap dates."
If you average out for dog years, Thea and I are about the same age, this year. As a pup, she was such a handful, unfazed by reprimand, destructive, and mischievous. She's matured into one of the most sweet, loving and playful girls you could ever imagine. I love her so much and am glad to have an excuse to share my birthday celebration with her.
Here's to many more years to come.
