Aaron's 19th Birthday

This year for Aaron's birthday we traveled up to our own little metropolis of Spokane. I has a few ideas cooking for our time up there and let me tell you, it was a delightful day!
We headed out a little late because the birthday boy could not go to sleep the night before so he so elegantly failed to wake up for a biscuits and gravy breakfast so we could leave at 9am. But all is well because Southside was not even open when I got the to decorate the table. Hence the lounge as the new location and me waiting there wondering if that boy of mine would ever wake up or hear his vibrating phone or knocks on his door.

When the 19 year old prince awoke, we opened all the presents he had gotten from everyone!

Then to Spokane we went! By the time we got there it was about time to have some lunch so we went to the downtown Olive Garden for a delicious lunch of Chicken Alfredo and endless soup.

After our tummies were filled to the brim, we tried to go to the closed Law Enforcement Museum and the closed District Attorney's Office. We made a loop to Music City to see if we could find Aaron a jazz piano book. He picked out a really good one even though I voted for the Glee one. We perused around the downtown mall and got him a spiffy button up shirt from Gap and two tshirts from Macy (green and black).

 The the big gift from me was an hour of jumping at SKY HIGH! You wouldn't think you would get so tired but man oh man! It was so much fun to feel like I got to be 6 years old again with my best friend Aaron. Pretty much jumping just makes everything bad go away and makes you focus on how much fun you are having and how tired you are at the same time :)

Then for dinner I made a reservation for us to finally try the CHEESE fondue at the Melting Pot! It was SUPER good and then the evening was just too good to pass up sharing some chocolate too.

 

So HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you AARON! Can't wait until next year :D
