My Birthday Part II

This is the second part to this story.

On the actual day of my birthday I woke up to this:



Yes I know they're just balloons, but like I said, the honey's not that type of guy. So this was the perfect beginning to the perfect day. PS: today, January 25th the balloons are still on that door. Talk about damn quality balloons!! LOL Ok, ok back to my bday. The honey had surprised me [he tends to do that] with reservations to a restaurant that we had passes a few times in downtown and that he knew I was dying to try.

He e-mailed me the reservation confirmation that they had sent him. This was on December 23rd during the day, which meant... 1) I started screaming at work... 2) I needed an outfit. Thankfully I didn't close (the store) that day because it would have meant no shopping for me. So being that I hate don't like shopping when it's crowded, and this was the day before Christmas Eve, I was a bit stressed. I ran down to the forever loyal, Forever 21, looked around, grabbed a dress, tried it on and $23 later I had my bday outfit.




I spent the day pampering myself, and by that I mean I went to get a pedi. LOL I needed it...badly! My feet hurt like crazy from the long hours at work, plus I was going to wear open toe shoes, which I hadn't done in forev, so I went there. I basically didn't do much for the rest of the day, not that I remember at least. I remember receiving one amazing gift, but I'll share those deets on another post.


Duck face for you.

I really didn't go all out with my outtie. I barely had any makeup on and my hair was just wet from the shower. I used some accessories that I had from a previous occasion [a formal ball] and my shoes were actually a birthday gift from when I turned 20. I love those shoes!!!!! Just wish they were a bit more comfy.





Here we are at the restaurant, the food was ah-ma-ZING!!!! The service, well not so much. We still had the best time EVER, I seriously love this guy, my birthday was AMAZING!! [Ok, for the people that don't know me or are new around here, I'm a big grumpy grinch, so he reached a milestone right there]. After returning home, I can't remember if we watched a movie or not, but rumor has it that I fell asleep singing this song...



So there you have it, my amazing, over.the.top, did.I.say.amazing birthday. Look for the next post on what happened on Christmas day...

PS: Thanks to all of you guys for the bday wishes that I got, a million thanks!

My Birthday Part I

Almost a month after, but hey, I've been a busy girl. So this is the first part of my birthday, which was on Christmas Eve. Why first part?? Well, because my family has a tradition of celebrating birthdays, Christmas, and such things the day before, after 12:00 am. So it's technically the day of your birthday, but well, not yet. Understand?

So this was December 23 after midnight. I had work, the huns picked me up, and after we arrived home he suprised me wih this.





Now, don't get me wrong he's very romantic, but not your typical I-buy-you-flowers-and-chocolates-all-the-time type of guy. So to be surprised with this was already FRIKIN AWESOME, also cause I L O V E chocolate. As you can tell I had already eaten most some of it before I could stop to take a picture.

After all this amazingness, he let me open one present, from the three that belonged to me under the tree. Note: This is another family tradition. We put the the gifts under the tree as soon as they're ready. So basically, the tree has gifts under it for a month. And you walk by it 10 times a day without being able to open them = TORTURE. I chose the smaller box, well because it had bells on it.



Crappy, crappy pictures due to the anxiety excitement.


OMG!! I believe that at this point, I had tears in my eyes.

The watch is beyond beautiful. Very, very classy yet feminine and OMG awesome. I have the rest of my birthday story coming up next week, stay tuned...

Kisses and have a fun weekend, if you're being flooded like me, be safe [geez, I'm so Edward].

XO

Merry [sortakindalate] Christmas!!!

Hi lovers!!! I hope you all had an amazing Christmas, alone or with family and friends I hope you enjoyed it!! Also, I have really good news for you, the mall has ended their extremely ridiculous holiday hours!!! This only means more time for moi to blog and read your blogs on a regular basis, instead of reading 1000+ on one sitting [true story]. So I now leave you with a little bit of Christmassy pictures, also I will post all the drafts I have left on my dashboard soon, pinky promise.







PS: My MIL is visiting us for the remaining of the holidays [aka NYE and such], so maybe...just maybe... I won't be here as much as I should. Jeje, say hi to her meanwhile...

PPS: I'm still dreaming of seeing snow one day, that place [last pic] looks fascinating!!!

Kisses huns!
