Happy Birthday

I had a really good birthday this year thanks to my husband.

I woke up to a new alarm clock (mine was really bad at keeping time), my husband making breakfast (breakfast cake and freshly squeezed orange juice), flowers, and several gifts. Jacob had bought me gifts that he kept putting in different places throughout the day. I continued to find wrapped gifts in places where they would normally be located. For example; the new alarm clock was all wrapped up but plugged in and on my bookshelf near my bed, candles were wrapped on the table, and my new rudolph dvd was downstairs amongst the other dvds. It was a really fun way to get gifts all day long.

Here's the deal with the olives and mushrooms. Jacob hates 'em and I love 'em. So he bought me a can of each for my birthday. It was pretty funny.

I was also able to leave work early due to a canceled appointment. I spent my afternoon working on the bedroom in the basement. I had finished removing the wall paper and applying mud earlier that week and spent the afternoon priming the room in preparation for texturizing.

When Jacob got home from work we went out to dinner. A few friends came over for games and cake that evening. All in all it was a really good day! I'm just sad I didn't take more pictures of it all.

Thanks to everyone who called, sent emails, and spent some time with me on my birthday! And especially thanks to Jacob for planning it all and being the thoughtful husband he is!

I'm thinking 30 is going to be a good year.
