24th Birthday

 As I said earlier this was probably my best Birthday to date. My family teases me that I always make my BirthDAY last all WEEK long. This year was no exception, and I even had some excuse because my birthday was on a Sunday. So really it all started Friday afternoon when I got this beautiful bouquet delivered to our house. 

So pretty! Then that night Erik took me to see Hunger Games- my one request for my birthday. It was awesome. We both loved it! 

Saturday Erik granted me a free "all to myself day". (i later learned it was so he could practice a certain dance!) So I started off my morning at a few yard sales (my favorite), then attended a friends baby shower, then headed off to both malls in the afternoon with friends. I was literally gone ALL DAY! I haven't shopped in the mall in over a year. It was so nice. I didn't even buy that much but it was so nice to just walk around and look while chatting with friends. Then to top it off I came home and took a late nap! I felt so rejuvenated from my day. I was so grateful to Erik. 

Then that night I was expecting a nice dinner date with my husband and boy was I in for a surprise. Once I get the pictures from that night I will do a separate post with all the nights details. If you've seen the video you know It was epic! ;) 

Oh wait...it's not even my birthday yet!? ha! Here is our Sunday, my actual birthday. 

Erik made me a gourmet meal complete with this bad bird, as well as homemade garlic mashed potatoes, and homemade french bread. It was so delicious! 

Present time! I got a beach chair! I have wanted one of these forever! So excited! 

And Lu got me some baking utensils. Wahoo!! 

Cake time! More bragging on my awesome husband. This is a HOMEMADE chocolate cake with a marshmallow center. I am not sure what the drizzle is on top, but see those strawberry roses he carved? So beautiful and so creative!

Happy 24th Birthday to me. I told Erik he really out-did himself and he might have set the bar crazy high for future birthday's.
