This week was awesome! Jared turned 18 (again - at least that's what everyone kept telling him...) this last Wednesday. It was a great birthday. I got the BEST birthday phone call ever! You see, the day before, Kaylee learned how to say the word 'happy'. And so Holly and Kaylee called me on the phone at work and sung me happy birthday! Kaylee would say 'happy' and then Holly would sing a few words and then Kaylee would say 'happy' again etc. We got it on video later that day...
Then my co-workers took me out to lunch (yummy Mexican food). Then I came home and Holly and Kaylee gave me my present. The pics will tell the story...
Daddy opened up his present and saw some 'opera glasses', as they're called. These are his thoughts: "Interesting gift; cool, I guess..."
Kaylee like playing with them too (backwards, of course).
Upon further inspection of the gift bag (taped to the bottom) he found the real surprise...(check out that face!)
Tickets to the Suns-Lakers game for the next day! Jared was quite happy and pleasantly surprised! We had a blast going together.
Here's the almighty Staples Center in all its glory...
We were way up there (thus the opera glasses) but we didn't care! We had so much fun enjoying the night out together. Our only gripe was that two of the Suns star players were out with injury (Steve Nash and Amare Stoudemire). Oh - and that the Suns suffered their worst defeat of the year! But at least the Lakers fans didn't get their free tacos! I don't know if that's a good thing; I guess we could have enjoyed them as well...
Here's a little Kobe-Shaq pic

Shaq at the free-throw line (always a surprise outcome)
Look at that happy couple! Thanks so much Dear! I'll always remember this one!
