Well, I think today turned out to be a good day even thought it was Simon's birthday. We took him to Eastwood Towne Center in Lansing where there are several restaurants. Simon actually made a quick decision, (he is usually worse than me about making decisions) and he chose Bravo!, an Italian restaurant. We really loved the decor of the place and the food was excellent. Simon made a very good choice. After a little shopping at Sam's, (such a cool place to shop on your birthday but we did buy the first season of Hero's to watch) we came home and Simon blew out the candles on his cake. Then he opened up his presents and replied to all of his well wishers that wrote to him on line. Since he got poker chips for his birthday and also heading up to the casino in the morning, Simon had an urge to play some poker. He had to settle on playing with Floyd and I and it will be an experience he will never forget. In fact, he said he can't wait to play with someone who knows how to play, referring to me, not Floyd. But who cares if I know how to play or not because I beat him..........I won 2 of the 3 games we played. Floyd won the last one but I did go all in on a hand that I never would have but it was midnight and the guys were tired. We are expecting there to be no school in the morning as a snow storm is coming but as of now, it hasn't started so they thought they should be prepared, just in case. I had my good luck charms, my German bear and my Norwegian moose. (Sully, I guess I need something French or Irish to complete my collection.) But it was my night for cards, especially on the river. All in all, it was a great night and I hope Simon had a good birthday. Happy 18th, Simon!
