22 two two to to too too....Tribute to my day of Birth

Yesterday was my Birthday. I don't think I've been text so much in my life! Haha, but everyone's Birthday wishes were greatly appreciated. I decided to get work off so I could just relax and be lazy on my Brithday. I got to sleep in and it felt grrreat. All my roomates are gone so if it wasn't for Ben, it would have been really lame. On the contrary, it was a GREAT Birthday. My mom told me that something was going to be delivered to me between 10 and 11, so I woke up and got ready and waited for the delivery. It was so cute, my mom's good friend Sue who lives in Orem brought me balloons and a delicious Icecream cake(my favorite) from my mom. It was so nice of Sue! And a great idea on my mom's part. I loved it. It made it feel like it was really my birthday. My mom is so thoughtful.

In the afternoon Ben took me shooting, which is one of my favortie things to do. Ben has a pistol and a rifle. The weather was perfect when we first got there, but it eventually started to rain pretty hard. We felt hardcore because even the rain didn't stop us(It did however, make me really cold haha). When I got back home I got ready for the rest of the night. Ben picked me up around 6 and brought with him the prettiest flowers!!! I never get flowers so I was pretty excited. He also had a big box that was wrapped with homemade wrapping paper (lined notebook paper taped with masking tape and spray painted) hahaha. SO cute. I've been wanting a gas grill for a long time now. Everything taste better grilled! When I saw the big box I knew he got it for me! I was so stoked! I'm so exctied for it and can't wait to start grillinnnnn. Next he told me we were going to Salt Lake to a "Special" restaurant. I felt like a little kid, I was so excited and giddy. I love eating out! Haha. We went to a restaurant called Flemmings(the nicest restaurant I've been to in a long time). I got filet mignon with a side of these delicious potatoes and it was to die for. The macaroni and cheese we got was the best I had ever tasted. They also gave me these dark chocolate truffles since it was my birthday and of course, they were SO good. I felt so spoiled! It was amazing. After we got home Ben put my grill together(Very grateful for that) and then we took my icecream cake over to his sister's house and shared the goodness. It was a such a great birthday and Ben was such a sweetheart for everything he did :)




My Flowers!!!





Ben putting my present together-What a man ;)




I wanted a picture with my flowers, but then I felt stupid and started

laughing. Ben kept reptedly taking pictures...this was the result.




Almost Done! Woohoo Grill!
