Why my 25th birthday rocked: Part 1

The past few days have made me feel very blessed. Blessed with good co-workers and friends, blessed with great family, blessed with a great husband and blessed with fun opportunities. (Good thing there are no grammar police around here because that was definitely a terribly written sentence)

Let's start with my co-workers/friends. 

Wednesday the 26th was the last day of the work week for me because I took Thursday and Friday off. When I arrived at work, I saw that my co-workers had brought in all the fixins for a taco bar pot luck. If you know me, you know I love Tacos! Yes, I capitalized Taco on purpose. Tacos are soooo good. These are my favorites around Spokane. These are my FAVORITES north of the Mexico border. Anyways, I love Tacos and it was so sweet of them to do that. I also received a sweet scarf and apron from them. :)

Let's move on to my husband. Wednesdays I help teach Cub Scouts and this week was our Blue and Gold Banquet. I asked Caleb to come along but he said he had school work to do so I went alone. It went long and clean up took awhile to get done, which was a bummer because Caleb kept texting me wondering when I'd come home. Finally, I got done and came home to ... well... something amazing!

Caleb, the little stink pot, had a Harry Potter themed surprise set up at home for me. At the top of the stairs on the door was taped an envelope and wand. The outside of the envelope said, "Sorry this is so late! --A.D" and inside was my very late invitation to Hogwarts and a ticket for the Hogwarts Express. 

As I entered the apartment I had to jump through the platform 9 and 3/4 and as I did so, "Lumos" was shouted and the lights turned on. 

And there was my Caleb in full Wizarding gear with a magic time turner for just in case I wanted to experience everything again ( which obviously I did! I only made him act it out one additional time).

For the next twenty minutes I got to explore my apartment and see all the fun things Caleb had set up for me. It was 100 percent magical! 

And lastly we have....

Unfortunately, I had to. Sorry Myrtle! 

****Cheesey self-reflection time****

I can't tell you how happy this made me. I love, love, love, that Caleb took the time to plan this and set it up. I love, love, love, that he knows me so well to know exactly what would make me smile. I love, love, love, him! Everyday I'm thankful for the path I was put on so that I ended up with Caleb. I'm telling you world, things happen for a reason and somehow or another, things always end up working out the way they are supposed to.
