One year older and smarter too!

              Well my birthday was over a week ago, but between school, work, and my blog malfunctioning this has been the first opportunity I’ve had to write about my birthday! And let me just say…It was a great birthday! :) I would prolly rate it up there with the top 3 birthday for sure…The only better birthdays I can remember are my 16th birthday and my 20th birthday…16th just because it was totally awesome thanks to me mum and the 20th because it’s the first birthday I celebrated with my hunny! And he always tries to make things involving me special…And the longer we’re together the better he gets! Can’t wait to see what my 30th birthday holds. ;)

            Anyway…So my 23rd birthday was last Tuesday. Robby never fails to wish me happy birthday as early as possible, so as soon as I was coherent in bed he wished me a happy birthday and asked what I wanted for breakfast. I really was okay settling for cereal, but after some coaxing he got biscuits out of me. So I was able to enjoy home-made birthday biscuits. On Tuesdays I have to go to 3 back to back classes and then an hour break and off to work. I wasn’t too happy about this considering it was my birthday…So I went to my first class and decided ‘eh…its ma birthday, I’m gonna go shopping!’ So instead I ditched the books and headed for the stores. After an enjoyable shopping spree I headed to work. I work at a smoothie place on campus called Freshens and for the most part it’s a fun job…Just ask Robby about my co-workers :)

            After work is when the real fun began. Robby had to run out to get my cake he had ordered while I freshened up from work and made myself look pretty. When he got back he had a bouquet of yellow and white flowers for me. He said that ‘the yellow flowers made him think of how bright and beautiful I am.’ Awww, I give you permission to gush. :)  



             I decided this year that I’d give Robby a break and so we went out for dinner. I really love this Italian place called ‘Johnny Conrinos’ down in Idaho Falls, so that’s where Robby took me. After mounds of pasta and Italian soda we headed back to the apartment. This is basically how getting out of the car went down:

(Robby opened the apartment door and I walked right in)

Robby: You missed something…
Me: Wha?
Robby: You missed your first clue.
Me: What?

(I walked back over towards the door to realize there was a strip of white paper attached to the door, I picked it off to read my first clue)

Clues!


Clue #1: I hand high on a wall that is beige in color. I hold lots of neat things that you can’t live without! I figured out that it was my Jewelry box, and inside was $20 to spend on MORE jewelry for my box 


Attached to my $20 was Clue #2, it read…

Clue #2: So I guess you found some lose change so that you may add more to my collect so that I can decorate your neck and ears! Now let’s make haste because your next gift may not stay! I go from place to place entertaining all.

This one was a little more tricky to figure out…And I spent a few minutes peaking around out entertainment center trying to figure out what on earth he was talking about…Finally I realized it was the DVDs! Amongst our DVD collection was one wrapped DVD…Once opened I was happy to find Grey’s Anatomy Season 6 on DVD 



Attached to the outside of my DVD gift was Clue #3…

By now I was really getting into this little clue game to find my gifts and I was absolutely amazed that my sweet hunny did all this! He’s not this creative! Boy did he prove me wrong!

Clue #3: When I think of your next gift there is only one word that comes to mind…Happy! You can look everywhere before you think of where I might pee!

Since the word ‘pee’ happen to be in my clue I guessed somewhere in the bathroom was my next clue…But Robby does admit now that this wasn’t exactly the best clue. :) I finally found my next wrapped gift in the vanity, which was Clinique Happy perfume…Hence why he could only think of ‘Happy’ for my next gift haha. 



The next clue I was given said…

Clue #4: I don’t like the cold but I got put here because there was no other place to hide, please come and find out who I am before I eat all of this freezer jam!

I think by far this was my favorite clue Robby wrote…It was so stinkin’ cute! I ran immediately to the freezer to find sure enough, another wrapped present…In the freezer! When I un-wrapped this gift I found a make-up organizer…Which to some this may not seem like that big of a deal, but trust me...When a 23 year old woman is using a Lisa Frank box to store her make-up it’s about time to move on. I’ve just been too cheap to spend the money to get one and I guess I just couldn’t part Lisa Frank…Robby helped make that possible haha.

Ahh...New organizer!







The old embarrassment...

After I gushed at how great Robby was and what a fantastic job he did we had German Chocolate Cake and I got a private birthday song sung by Robby into my ear. Haha I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday or a better man to spend it with. Robby still makes me feel incredibly special and loved, and I know being with him will always bring me joy, happiness, and fun. He’s what made my birthday awesome…And he’s what makes my birthday great. 


Ohhh yes!

Reading the card Robby got me.

Robby singing 'Happy Birthday' right into my ear :)


One year older and smarter too. Smart for choosing the best guy to spend eternity with and make every birthday splendid. 




On another quick note...I just had to brag about the home-made bread bowls and stew we made...Quite a meal and I just had to brag about it :)
