Birthdays!

Get your party hats on!! This is a big week on the birthday front - a
chance to celebrate a few people who mean the world to Kurt and I:

Today is the birthday of one of our dearest friends, Sara Hagedorn.
We met Sara in the wilds of South Dakota, campaigning for John Thune,
and have been friends ever since.

November 12 - My mother celebrates a milestone birthday!!!

And, closing out the big week, Kurt's dad celebrates his birthday on
the 13th!! Jack will be out here, this weekend, so we get to
celebrate with him.

43 is not really a milestone.

It is giving me hives not to say how old you are, Mom. I almost took out a happy birthday ad in the Bend Bulletin, but I thought that might get me disowned :)

Steph said...

I am totally on board for taking out an ad! I am pretty sure it would get us disowned though!

I fail to understand why you children are questioning your mother about celebrating her 43rd birthday....I remember the day very well... and I am still only 62... barely a senior...

love, Grannie Channie

p.s. don't forget Aunt Trink only turned 40 ish...

Vicki said...

Well you can stop scratching since I've already owned up to it!

LOL you guys crack me up!!!

Trink said...

Can anyone tell me why Mom always has to drag me into this! You would think by now she would know better. I was once asked her age by a co-worker and I answered something like 38. (Please note I was 24 at the time).

Jennifer & Stephanie - let me know if you still want the ad. Vicki disowned me a long time ago!

Ok - why do I waste my first posting to the blog, not about Kurt but about Vicki's avoidance of a milestone Birthday. Nice to know that Jen just hit her 30th and Vicki is 43?

It's an important day for Jack - enjoy your time with Kurt & Jen!

Jennifer said...

Exactly! I wonder if Mom has considered that people probably think she is older than she really is, given that she has a 30-year old daughter...and I love that this conversation is what finally gets you to post :)

Jay - can't wait to see you whip Kurt!!
