Well, since he’s started receiving presents, I guess I’ll blog about it. Sunday is a rather significant day in the life of my Knitter’s Knight. (Shown here at another special party…) It will be his 40th birthday. However, because he’s a squirrel as we call very obsessed volunteer firefighters, he’ll be at the firehouse ALL weekend…
Duty crew tonight and tomorrow night, with live burn trainings on Saturday and Sunday. But, since this man announced to everyone who could possibly care MONTHS ago that he didn’t want a party, and he happens to run crew with his best friend, we decided we’d just have dinner Saturday night at the station.
Um, yeah. We have two friends flying in from Boston, and at last count, we’re up to 42 people for the Not Secret, Not Party. Our training room, where I’d planned to hold the fete, only holds 48 comfortably, so I think the Birthday Boy is going to have to quit inviting people to his non-event.
I’ll have to blog again with more photos of the Knight. (There’s one on a CD from this summer I have in mind, and I’ll have my camera tomorrow night…) On top of it all, I have a huge Pampered Chef bridal shower tomorrow some 40 miles away, because when I scheduled it, he didn’t want a party and was going to be tied up all day anyway. Thank goodness for his best friend and his family, my inlaws, LT and his family - his assistant at work, a friend, our dog sitter, a fellow volunteer firefighter – and the fire chief’s wife, because thanks to their help, it will all come together despite my body being three counties away tomorrow!
Maybe that will also be the day I finally give you a cast of characters to follow…
Gotta love them Non-parties!! lol Happy Birthday to the Knight!! Big hugs and tell him to enjoy and we can’t wait to hear all about it!
Sounds like it will be a great time!
