Happy Birthday Katie!!!
Happy Birthday to YOU, Happy Birthday to YOU, Haaaappppppyyyyy Biiiiirrrtthhhday tooooo KATIE, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!
Today is Katie’s birthday! In honor of her birthday, I figured to would tell you a few things about her.
1 – Katie is an amazing person and I love her.
2 – Katie loves receiving gifts. (I love giving her gifts, but I love to mess with her and make her think that I’m a slacker and didn’t buy her anything or that I forgot about it entirely. It makes the gift-giving process much more enjoyable for me. And I love messing with her.)
4 – Katie is a GREAT mom. (I knew she would be)
5 – Katie is a horrible driver. One time in high school she was driving her car behind mine and crashed into me at a stop light. True Story.
6 – Katie gets really grossed out by the strangest things, like food in the sink drain.
7 – Katie hates coffee.
8 – Katie loves wine.
9 – Katie has ZERO tolerance for alcohol. Anyone that knows her can tell you this, she is the only person I know that after a SINGLE glass of wine she has this cute little grin on her face.
10 – Katie loves country music.
11 – Katie also asked me one time, “why are the Beatles such a big deal?”
12 – Katie loves to sing, really loud, but she has an ear piercing voice.
13 – Katie loves Holidays.
14 – Katie is a light sleeper and sometimes makes me wake up in the middle of the night to search the house for burglars, or squirrels, or the bogeyman.
15 – Katie won the National Spirit of Women Award when she was high school. She went to the capital and met Maya Angelou and got a personalized congratulations video from the first lady Hilary Clinton.
16 – Katie loves charity so much that she jumped in to the long island sound in January for the Penguin Plunge a few years ago.
17 – Katie cracks herself up.
18 – Katie has used cue-tips EVERYDAY of her life until her doctor told her last week that the pain in her ear was probably caused by that.
19 – Katie lives by Emily Post’s rules of Etiquette. Trust me, if she ever meets the Queen of England she will know how to act.
20 – Katie is the most loving, caring, thoughtful person I have ever met. I love her more everyday and I’m so happy that I get to spend my life with her. We have come a LONG way from the days when we could share a locker and make-out in the back of cars. This is only the beginning, and I can wait to see what happens next. I love waking up next to you, I love your smile, I love that beautiful baby boy that you brought into this world, but most of all I love to call you mine.
Happy Birthday Pookey. I can’t wait for Sushi Palace. 🙂

Happy Birthday to a fellow Q-Tip addict. Hope you have a wonderful day. Mmmmmm . . . sushi.
And Chris? I’m sure she only hit you because she was concentrating on your rear view mirror, trying to catch a glimpse of her beloved’s face. And now you mock her for it. On her birthday.
Katie
Thanks, Mindee. That is EXACTLY what happened. It had absolutely nothing to do with talking on my cell phone while driving…

Happy Birthday, Kitten. I remember when you once hit a car in a parking lot and got so nervous after you backed up that you hit the poor guy AGAIN! After the policeman made his report he asked you to wait until he was out of the parking lot before you backed up. Hilarious now, expensive insurance back then!!!! Love, Mom
