Lindsey's BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!

Well today is Lindsey's birthday, how exciting. Lindsey is turning 23 (which is the age she thought she would get married when she went to college, luckily Joe is so handsome and charming that he convinced her to get married earlier). Lindsey got some very wonderful gifts, but her favorite ones were from Joe (he knows her so well, she is sooooo lucky).
First off Joe got Lindsey an ice cream cake colored orange and white. And it may not sound very hard, but getting that cake was a trick. Joe went to Dairy Queen (his old stomping grounds) and asked if he could get an ice cream cake. So the boy goes back and gets this lady who makes the cakes, sounds fine, but it wasn't. The lady could not speak English, and Joe doesn't really "speak" Spanish. So luckily Joe was able to use his wonderful comunicating skills, and the little Spanish he does know to comunicate what he wanted, an orange and white cake. Then she asks him how he wants to decorate the cake, Joe went silent. He didn't even know how to describe decorating a cake in English, let alone Spanish. But Lindsey is sure lucky that Joe is so wonderful because he got some ideas across, and the cake turned out perfect. Without such a wonderful comunicator, this ice cream cake would never have happened.
Lindsey was also excited to recieve A NEW DIGITAL CAMERA!!!!!!!!!! It was just what she wanted and needed, Joe is so amazing. The only problem is that when Joe looked it up on line at costco.com it showed the same camera for thirty dollars cheaper, and with a 2gb memory card, but when he went to the store he found it was not so. So Lindsey can not open the camera, she has to take it back and order one from online, because then they can use those thirty dollars to go out to Macaroni Grill, and use the memory card to take pictures of how handsom Joe is.
Lindsey was also very excited to have a lot of family there for her birthday, she wished that members of her immediate family could have been there, but Joe's family is soooo good to her that she was just overjoyed. All and all it was a wonderful birthday, but to all of you that did not call Lindsey on her birthday, she is still a little upset with you, and you know who you are.

It says Lindsey posted this blog, but why do I get the sense that Joe actually wrote it? Hmmmm. Welcome to the blogging world guys! I love all of your pictures...can't wait to see little baby boy Dean on there (Silus??)

Lindsey said...

No on Silus. Joe thinks that if he keeps calling him that then I will get used to it.
