Well, the big day has come and gone and it was such a delight. While waiting to pick up Ben from work, I hiked over to the mall for some much needed thinking time. There's a caribou smack in the middle of the mall where I ordered some chai and made my pretty list of 21 things to do for the 21st year. :)

1. Bake an apple pie from scratch
2. Sew the following: apron, dress, skirt, & coat
3. Have a rockin 1st year of marriage.
4. Secret
5. Be more compassionate to family.

7. Get in the habit of laughing.

10. Start looking for ways to 'bless others' rather than 'treat myself."
11. Make our neighbors cookies :D

20. Get to know Mr. Ben even better.

22. Learn the napolean dynamite dance (Yes, I'm quite the over achiever)
After I made my lists and watched all these cute pregnant women (every pregnant woman in Minneapolis came to the mall yesterday) walk around, I headed off to pick up my husband.
After I picked up mr. Ben, he began the real birthday celebrations:
After going out to eat, he took me to SURPRISE. The guitar center and got me the most beautiful guitar. I played it all night until my fingers hurt and was. SO. Happy.
Ben's quite the teacher with guitar as well. Ladies and Gentlemen, I picked well. Thanks Ben, for the most kickin b-day ever.
You're the most amazing man ever.
So, good birthday indeed.
