birthday blur

Tim's 30th birthday was last week. We planned on catching a couple of Rays/Red Sox series games to celebrate. Instead, while at a game during the Yankees series the week before, Tim won tickets to the last game of the season. And not just any tickets, mind you. Tickets for the exclusive Whitney Bank Club, which include a brunch and lunch buffet throughout the game along with beer and wine. The above picture was taken by the waiter for our section (about 40 people), who was wonderful about keeping up with anything we wanted/needed (despite not being steady with a camera.) We even had the Bucs game on at the bar, which was nice since the Rays were still a bit sluggish and hung over from Saturday's post-season-clinching win. Sadly, the Rays lost both their opening and closing home games for the season. Let's hope their post-season record is better.

Also, five minutes after arriving at the Whitney Bank Club, I ran into a teacher from my school and her twin sister. How crazy is that?

There are lots of changes on the horizon for us in the next few weeks, so it was wonderful to spend the weekend visiting some of our favorite St. Pete haunts. I left feeling sad that I haven't sold my house yet. I love it down there.

P.S. You can't tell from the blurry pic and the hat, but Tim finally got the hair cut he's been talking about for months. It's super short (maybe 1/2 inch?) and completely adorable. He, of course, hates it.
