Except this one was a double celebration!
It kicked off last Saturday with the AC/DC concert, went on throughout the week days with the successful passing with a 100% on the driver’s test, attaining their learners license, and now… finishing up with a night of fun with their closest friends in the recently completed shipping containers.
A rather packed week for Matthew and David, but hey… why not? You only turn 16 once. And oh… what an age to turn, still young, still youthful, still know everything; I know I did. Not only do they have the whole road of life ahead of them, they now have a means of driving on that road. That is assuming they can get the car in the proper gear and not stall out at a big intersection then drive up on the curve.
These two are such a fun blend of personalities. A fiery ginger who can kill you on xbox live like no one’s business; and a gentle giant who can out play any bass player I know, and yes, that does include my ex-seafood named friend (Madre and Andrew, you know who I’m talking about). All in all, a couple good blokes, well, when they aren’t arguing, terrorizing their younger brother, or putting crap on the Yankee that is.
The past two days reminds me of my own “twin”. Val, the shipping containers have a pool table that also converts into an air hockey table… memories. When I get home… we are going to Camelot (YES I STILL CALL IT CAMELOT) and we are going to have a match, actually… several. Oh, and Phil… Luke… you two aren’t going to stop us, you don’t want to get hit by the puck, then don’t stand so close.

Wow that sounds like they had a pretty great birthday! So would you be the one teaching them driving? 16 is an exciting age, hopefully these will be good years for them.
