My birthday was last Monday, and Ben made sure I had an absolutely perfect day. :) As soon as I fell asleep the night before, he got up and decorated the dining room. What's funny is that I woke up for a bit when he was getting out of bed to decorate, and when he got back in, but he told me he just went to the bathroom, and I totally believed him haha! I had no idea that he was gone for more than just a couple minutes. ;) Didn't he do a great job?? It was beautiful! He got me this card because I turned 21, and I used the bottle opener to pop open that bottle of sparkling cider. ;) After breakfast, we went shopping and then to IHOP for a birthday lunch. Those nutella crepes were soooooooo good. (And so was Ben's philly steak.) Then we came home and I opened my present from Ben. He got me this gorgeous candle (that smells like heaven and citrus and spices and summer and Christmas all at the same time), which was exactly what I asked him for ;) He's a great listener ;)
Then we got ready and went to Olive Garden for my birthday dinner. We stuffed ourselves full of pasta and breadsticks and dessert (pretty much my three favorite things), and then we came home and had brownies and ice cream. It was perfect. I love you, Ben :)

It's hard for me to believe that you're 21 years old! You grew up so fast and left for college before you were even 18. And now you're married to a wonderful man.(Makes me feel a little cheated it all happened so fast), but I'm so happy you're happy, and for all the fun and beauty you bring to others! I'm so blessed to be among the others. You're certainly deserving of such a wonderful birthday! Thanks for sharing it with us!!
