I think you are an amazing person and I am thrilled to be part of your life -
Because of that, I wanted to give you something for your birthday that is as exciting as you are. -
Normally we have been going away for your birthday. -
Like Washington, DC last year... -
or New Bern, the year before -
My original thought was to go to Denver. It's one of my favorite cities -
But this year, you are starting a new job. (yay!) So going away for a weekend is not an option (boo!) -
I wanted to show you Red Rocks. One of the most amazing amphitheater's in the world. (Look at that view!) -
We will still do that one day soon. As soon as you get some vacation time from this place. -
But that doesn't help me celebrate the birthday of one of the most amazing and exciting people I know. -
Stop laughing. I stand by what I said. You are amazing and I have exciting adventures with you. -
Where was I? Oh yeah... -
Birthday! I had strict criteria for a birthday present. -
It had to be exciting... -
It had to be something we could experience together... -
Finally, it had to be something you wouldn't get yourself. But what? (no you are not getting this car) -
Then I remembered a conversation we had recently -
And it hit me. The perfect gift to make your day happy and memorable. -
This may sound crazy... -
and you can say 'no' and my feelings will not be hurt -
I believe this picture is correct -
So for your birthday, I would like to have you pushed out of an airplane. -
And fall to the earth at 130 MPH -
And remember that shared experience? -
I'll be experiencing it from the ground! -
So what do you say? -
Whatever your answer, I hope you have and amazing 31st birthday and a wonderful and happy 32nd year of life.
