To say that I've been spoiled for my birthday this year is an understatement. I have felt loved and blessed and all of the other good adjectives in the world for the past few days.
It started on Saturday with birthday dinner with good friends, continued on Sunday with the family celebration for me and my sis-in-law. That all bled into yesterday, the actual day...
The first gift that rolled in were these (being shipped) from my sis-in-law and brother/boss:
Then I got home to see this all over my room. Can you see who that is? It's Apolo Ohno. You see, when the Olympics came on this year, I told my roommate about the slightly embarrassing moment I had of hitting on him, on State Street during the Olympics held in Salt Lake. It was so dumb, but a funny memory.
As I was standing at the vanity, taking everything in, I saw the back of my bedroom door, which had this lovely poster. Yes, this is my guilty pleasure, known to all who read this. They're just so pretty!
Then, the best part of the night. The boy took me out. We went to dinner and a movie and shopping. Then as he dropped me off, he gave me a final gift of a gift certificate to a spa. He's too nice. Most days I don't think I deserve it. But I'm always grateful for him.
Overall, I'd say this was a fantastic birthday! Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes, it means a lot to me!
