The Birthday Boy

This is my boyfriend, Nick. 

He wears a lot of flannel.

He has a very impressive beard. 

He also has some sweet tats.

He's an M1 at the CCOM - Midwestern U. 

And today is his 24th birthday.

I bought him tickets to a bulls game
a few weeks back for his birthday present.

I also bought him a few beers.

And we watched D-Rose do his thang.

We had a good time.

Unfortunately, I am missing Nick's real birthday 

because I'm still in school at U of I in Champaign. 

I also missed Nick's birthday last year because I was 

studying abroad in Granada, España. The best I could do

 were those lousy facebook posts above. (sad face). 

Hopefully, this is the last year I will miss his birthday.

 Nick, here is a cake with some candles - it is the best I can do.

 Don't forget to make a wish.

HAPPY 24TH BIRTHDAY NICK.

xoxo, 

Sarah
