We celebrated Dave's birthday starting at midnight last night as we were driving from Tech's loss in the Orange Bowl to our hotel in West Palm Beach. We got into bed around 1:15 and were up at 4:15 to catch a 6:20 flight home that connected in Houston. We nearly missed our connection in Houston due to having to get from one terminal to another via lots of walking, a train, a connecting bus, more walking, another security screening, more walking. (You get the picture.)On the way home, we stopped for pizza, at a favorite local pizzeria. After a nap, we went to pick Gavin up from school and the good times began. We took Gavin to the mall for some people watching and happy feet from the stroller. We had dinner, opened cards and a gift, and sang happy birthday.
I know today wasn't Dave's ideal day. Funny how a football game can do that to you. Hopefully, our trip to Houston to meet Joe Montana at the end of the month--Dave's real gift, will be a more upbeat day.
Dave has Gavin on his lap--sounds like an outstanding birthday to me.
