As most of you know when I celebrate MY birthday its kinda more like a birthWEEK :o )

Saturday I spent the day on a boat with some friends @ Pineview Dam... Good thing Im a summer baby cause I totally worship the sun!! ;o ) ... By the way I started the day with a kiss from my man & a treat of strawberries & honey since he had to work :o ( & wasnt able to join us for fun!!
Sunday were family festivities!! As always Birthday Girls choice for dinner & desert. - Salmon, Asparagus & Lime cheescake ...mmmmm :o ) Jeffrey & I spent time havin' fun playing games w/ the fam & watchin the kids be cute-n-crazy!!

MONDAY... My actual day of birth...
... Sigh ...
Ive never had such an incredible, happy, romantic, fun-filled, memorable, sweet birthday !! :o )
All week Jeffrey lovingly teased me with lil comments like
"Youre going to love your birthday!"
"Im so excited for your birthday!"
"So ya want me to tell ya what we're doing... Too bad"
"We are going to have so much fun on Monday!!"
:o ) Brat huh ?!?! :o ) But I LOVEd it!!
No one has ever been able to surprise me & no guy has ever loved me so much to take the time, the energy & the thought that Jeffrey did in planning a VERY special day

...JUST for ME !! :o )


I was awakened around 8:30am to a sweet kiss & a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY !!
I, of course, did not wanna get OUT of bed...
But it was such a treat to start my bday looking @ his excited, smiling, happy face!!
While I showered & got ready, this wonderful thoughtful man did my dishes!!! I was ready to go abt 9:30am & we set off... My bag was packed for anything he could throw at me!! ... I had 3 changes of clothes - 1 nice 1 comfy bummy & 1 casual !! - & all kinds of other stuff!!
I am a freaking GirlScout dang it !! lol

1st stop.... IHOP !!
... Breakfast isnt my main meal of the day but IHOP is sort of a place that has a bit of meaning for us... We've met there for breakfast b4 work in the past!! :o )

2nd stop.... MOVIE !!
...We went to see The Mummy @ Century 16 !! & since we were 2 of 6 ppl in the theater I decided Id get COMFY !! ...HEY its MY bday!! :o ) hehe I folded up the arms of 3 seats & layed across them w/ my head in Jeffreys lap... It was seriously like watchin a flick @ home!! SOOO comfy!!

NEXT ... Romantic Picnic in the Park !!
...This is where you'll see that my guy happens to be the sweetest most romantic man EVER !!
We drove to Sugarhouse Park (which I had never been to by the way!) ... We found a sweet lil spot on the South end of the park under a tree... There Jeffrey proceeded to get a cooler, blankets & pillows from his trunk !! ... In the cooler was all my favorite fixins for sub sandwiches :o ) He even brought olives & miracle whip - 2 things he HATES on his sub!!
After we ate we layed on the blanket enjoying the weather & just being with one another :o )

.... And just when you think it couldnt get any better than this
The days only half complete!! ....

NEXT STOP .... PARK CITY for Apline Slide/Coaster !!!
...We headed up I-80 to fun city Park City to the Alpine Slide & Coaster !! (another place Id never been!!)
We both had so much fun playing !!
We rode the Coaster then the chair lift up to the Slide!!
It was a blast...
After playing a bit we decided to get a characture pic done!! lol
Ive always wanted one & I dont think it turned out too bad ...

DINNERTIME ....
By now we were both pretty hungry so we headed to dinner...
Dinner was MY choice & to keep with the romantic, nostalgic theme of the day ... I chose Texas Roadhouse - where we had our 1st date!!

AFTER DINNER .... We headed back to my apt where my sweet hopeless romantic (like me!!) boyfriend set the ambiance by playing a few tender songs on the laptop & had me sit in my bedroom - eyes closed... The anticipation just about killed me but the songs he chose were so incredible ...
The best was this one ...


...I sat listening to music, waiting, filled with anticipation...
Jeffrey came into my room...sat on the bed in front of me & told me to open my eyes...

When I opened them I saw this...
A gorgeous, sparkling, amazingly beautiful heart shaped locket!! ...
He told me he searched several stores for it & it was EXACTLY what he was looking for... He told me that he was giving me his heart !!! !!! (here's where you sigh & swoon & wish you had one JUST like my guy!!)

If what Ive just written doesnt already say it... Lemme tell ya...
Jeffrey is the most amazing, incredible, attentive, thoughtful, romantic man EVER!!! :o )
This was seriously the BEST birthday Ive ever had!!
