Nick's Birthday

I have pictures to post, but of course, they are on Nick's camera that he takes to Ontario with him every week.

Nick's birthday was last Saturday (the 25th) and he turned the big 2 6. I cannot believe how time files. I was joking around with him that he is now in his mid to late twenties since he is past the halfway mark. Then I started to think about things. We have been out of high school for 7.5 years. We have both been done with our first batchelor degrees for (me 3.5 years) and nick 2.5 years. I don't know if I like how fast time starts to go by once you are out of school and in the real world.

Anyway, Nick had a great birthday. We went down to Coos Bay with his dad and the rest of his family for an 80th birthday party for his grandma Lois. After the birthday, we stayed down in Coose Bay for the night and made a visit to the casino, where, despite never gambling (much) we won $600. For his birthday, Nick got a pair of Denali north face fleece gloves and a lafuma chair (from me), a Nintendo Wii (from his mom) and a tool set (from his dad). Additionally, he got a gift certificate to GI Joes (from Linda and Ashley). Pretty successful if you ask me!
