Birthdays are a big deal where I come from. My
parents went out of their way to make sure we felt special on our day. We got
to choose what we wanted to do and where we went to eat and my mom would make a
cake of our choice. They day would be extra special and they truly showed us
how much they loved us. My parents still make big deals out of birthdays. My
mom will make us the cake of our choice and we get to pick anywhere we want to
go to eat, it just usually isn’t on our actual birthday these days.
Garth is very similar. He loves the
opportunity to spoil me and to make a big deal about it. I love this about
Garth. He truly is so generous and thoughtful and this year was no exception.
On my 25th birthday he surprised me with a trip to Traverse City and
each day leading up to the trip he would give me a clue as to where we were
going.
It was such a fun trip!
Garth likes to extend your birthday from one day
to a couple days. It started on Monday with a surprise dinner from my favorite
sushi restaurant. On Tuesday he had me
open a few presents. I told you he spoils me! I’m a lucky girl.
He gave me two of my favorite things – red wine
and Raisinets. Does it get any better? YUM.
Since we purchased the new patio set I've been wanting summery plates to use to eat out there. Garth found these and Target and I think he has pretty great taste!
I am obsessed with candles so he gave me some
really delicious smelling ones from Khol's that are now the centerpiece on my kitchen
table.
I think the funniest part was that Garth was more
excited to tell me the great deals he got on the gifts than the actual gifts
themselves. He knows me to well. I love myself a bargain!
On my actual birthday Garth took me to the Chop House for dinner. Seriously, the best filet mignon I have ever had. Ever. It
literally melted in my mouth and was so flavorful. Don’t even get me started on
the garlic smashed potatoes. They were out of this world incredible. I think I
would want this for my last meal.
After dinner Garth showed me a picture of my main
gift which is shipping now. You guys, Garth out did himself this year and he
knows it. IT. IS. ON. Remember my obsession with accent chairs?
Well, Garth did me one better and bought a zebra print accent chair. I cannot
wait for it to arrive so I can find a place for it and show you all how
beautiful it is!!!
On my first day of being 29 I crossed two things
off my list.
Not too shabby if I do say so myself. I think it’s going to be a very good
year.
Cheers to that!
