happy birthday travis! on saturday travis turned 25, so his birthday fell on a saturday. he took the day off on friday and on monday to give himself a nice long weekend. i would like to say that it was jam-packed full of fun ... but alas ...
after coming home from work early on friday i slept for a bit and then headed over to travis's parents with him. the smoke in the house didn't help with my breathing much, and my throat started hurting more, so i wasn't the best company. i stayed cuddled up under a blanket in the recliner or on the couch for most of the evening. amanda and zach came over, so dee fixed dinner for everyone. she said we weren't supposed to eat together until sunday, but since we were all there she decided to go ahead and do it. we ate and visited, and then came home to snuggle back into my bed and watch a movie.
the next day was saturday and i was supposed to be assembling graduation invitations, but i felt pretty icky, so i stayed in bed, slept late, and woke up to find the house empty. everyone was gone to the pool hall. i took some medicine and then crawled into travis's bed and fell asleep again. he came home to check on me and give me some more medicine, but for the most part i slept all day long. i wanted to get well quickly. getting up and out only seemed to make me feel worse. i think we ended up going to his parent's this night, too, but to be honest, it's a little fuzzy now.
since we ate together on friday, i didn't think we were doing the sunday birthday party with the lears, but on sunday morning my mom asked what time everyone was going over. i wasn't sure, but found out we were to be there around 6:00. sunday i felt worse than i had on friday or saturday. i really did stay in bed all day, waking up in time to take a shower and clean myself up a bit before heading over to the lears'. i'm not sure why i went to the trouble, though, because we weren't in the house five minutes before i was asleep in travis's former room. i missed dinner, but was woken in time to watch him blow out his candles and open his gifts.
there were fewer people at the house this year than usual, but it was kind of nice. his parents, my mom, our siblings, and their significant others, and us. we left not long after cake and ice cream so that i could get back to bed. travis came in and watched a movie with me to keep me company.
sorry i wasn't better birthday company for you babe! happy birthday just the same! xoxo
