Valentines/ Birthday Weekend Extravaganza!!!!

I'm not exaggerating at all... it really was quite the extravaganza! To start off the weekend my valentines present from J was a quick little getaway to Salt Lake. We went down Friday night and stayed in a hotel and went to dinner and a movie.

The next day was one to go down in history! I have to admit I don't think I am a shopaholic, but I do enjoy shopping, and it does give me somewhat of a high, and my shopping habits have drastically changed since buying a house, getting married, all of that nonsense. So saturday we spent about 7-8 hours just shopping! At first I was a little hesitant and didn't know how well it would go over (I felt like I was dragging Jason along, and I was nervous I wouldn't find anything I liked- which really puts me in a bad mood) but we hit the jackpot at the first store we went to and after that it was smooth sailing! We ended up finding alot of great deals too, which really gives me a high cuz then I don't feel bad for buying things. Jason was such a trooper, he tried to find clothes he thought I would like- bless his heart, and sat outside dressing rooms all day.

Then the real treat came when we went to IKEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been nervous to go in that store, for fear that I would want everything, so this was both of our first times in IKEA! We were IKEA virgins you could say... and we totally put out to easily! After eating at the IKEA cafe and walking the store probably 4 times (I had shin splints)we ended up leaving with a chaise lounge that didn't fit in our car. But it was well worth the trip back down on Monday to pick it up.


Doesn't that just look divine! If you come over, I will let you sit in it after you have washed your hands of course!

Needless to say it was my favorite birthday of all my 22 so far. It was so fun to be with Jason all weekend and spend some good quality time shopping. He kept reminding me throughout the weekend that not all of my birthdays will be like this. I am okay with that as long as one of these type of birthdays come around every 5-10 years. I'm so grateful for a husband who isn't afraid to spoil me sometimes! Thanks J for a great weekend! Love ya!

Remind Jason that you should always be spoiled. It's a rule. And what about the fun friends you hung out with after IKEA?? Love your lounge by the way - now get your butts over here and play with us. We love you guys. And tell Kourtney and Nate to come over one of these days too.
