Birthday Excitement

So my mom is pretty much the most amazing person ever. She sent me a birthday package that I got today and it was full of the most amazing gifts. Each one had a sticky note with a little commentary. The first thing I pulled out was a neon yellow Carhartt hoodie or as we Holbrook's better know it, K268 BLM (I'm a Carhartt nerd :P). On it was a note that said, "To keep you safe in the dark so everyone sees you." Which was the best idea ever because I bike home late at night and have had multiple close encounters with many vehicles. The next thing I saw was some sort of dollar bill with some sort of happy denomination on it with a note that said, "Just because we love you." :) Then I saw a box of cake mix and frosting and the note said, "Because I can't be there to bake you one." There was also a cute pink Nalgene that said, " Keep on drinking! (sorry I couldn't find an orange)" And mom, I love pink too but you know me so well. Then there was a plastic bag full of fun party favors. Underneath that was a pedometer to "Measure all those steps you take" And not lastly but definitely my favorite part of the package was a box that said, "To let the light shine into your life." In that box was a hanging crystal just like the ones my dad has been buying for my mom on their anniversary for years. I now have my own to start my collection. The last part of the package and definitely the funniest was a pair of pants. The note for these said, "Just something cool, I thought of you." The pants are featured below.


For a brief moment I thought my mom was being silly because she saw crazy leather pants and thought of me. But then I looked back into my life and realized that I wear some pretty crazy things... :D Then after a second I realized that I have been looking everywhere the past few weeks for black stretchy pants for my Halloween costume and that these crazy pants would be perfect for that! For those of you who don't know, I am going to be Red Foo from LMFAO for Halloween and one of my excellent room mates is going to be Sky Blue. You may recognize these names from the group LMFAO or the very popular song Party Rock Anthem which is one of my very favorite songs. If you haven't heard it before or would just like to bask in it's awesomeness once again, here is the fabulous link. 


And just so you can get a better idea of my costume, here is the shirt I'm gonna be wearing.


It's obviously backwards but it says EVERY DAY I'M SHUFFLIN. Which, I am. Anyway, It was the best package that I have ever received and it made me very excited for my birthday and for halloween! 

Thanks mom, you're the best and I love you so much!
