Two Parties
. Cy's Birthday
. Black & White Christmas Party hosted by Jeff & Heshan
Today was Cyrus' 26th birthday. Les and I went to Coldstone's to buy an ice cream cake. She bought him a small round of cookies and mint. Instead of the size that they had purchased for my birthday, Les went with a smaller one since we're leaving for Vegas tomorrow. We went to Target as well. She wanted to find something small to give him on the day of even though she would get something better when they went back to London. We decided to settle on cards; I bought one as a gift from the rest of the family. It was a song card that you open up and a song plays. Haha, Les told me he started jogging/dancing when it started playing (Survivor's "The Eye of the Tiger").
I think the couple had bought Bailey's Irish Creme when they went grocery shopping earlier during their stay. We had that mixed with milk and it complemented the cake nicely. =3
Today is also the traditional Christmas party that Joe's friends started a few years back. I know he's really bummed that I had to cancel because of Vegas. I did want to go this year too. Last year he asked me, but that was before we began dating, and although I cared about him in a friendly way, I didn't feel completely comfortable going then. It would've been nice, but to come in as the girl he had been severely crushing on... I think I would've felt very on the spot. I probably would feel similarly now anyhow as his first girlfriend, but for some reason, that's something I don't mind handling. I guess because it's going to be part of our lives together. We're going to have to start somewhere.
