Kate, if you had gone out with us for your birthday, these are the things we would have done with you.
1.  We would have bought you a delicious soup (served in a bread bowl) and sandwich combo at Bison Witches, and perhaps would have shared our different flavored chips all ’round.
2. I definitely would have bought you a frosty beverage. Especially since I didn’t get you a card. Or a present.
3. And we would have taken you to the movie theater with the Husker football team. Yeah.   Yep, [famous player’s name] was there, and so was [famous player’s name].  And you wouldn’t believe how funny it was watching [extra-large famous player’s name] carry a teeny-tiny bag of popcorn.  Good times.  Sorry you missed it.
Who am I kidding? Kate never reads this anyway.
