Monkees Mobile

Yesterday was my birthday, and also my husband's. Being born on the same day played a big part in us getting together. It was fate, afterall. But now that we've been married for some time, having our birthday on the same day isn't so great. We both want to be pampered, and neither wants to do the pampering. We both want to sleep in. Get presents. Have our cake and not have to make it too.
So our birthday ended up being somewhat of a stalemate this year.
My big highlight was leaving the house for a while to film a video with the Mydols in the authentic Monkees Mobile. The car, created in Los Angeles for the original Monkees show, is now owned by a Livonia man. He took us for a spin while the cameras were rolling. What fun!
Then, he gave each of us a small toy replica of the car to take home, so V. was the one who ended up getting a present on our birthday.
Although we did end up making a cake together, and eating it too!
