Just to give you a little background... Todd and I love birthday's! If you ask Todd what his favorite holiday is he will reply, in all seriousness... "My wife's birthday!" I know, I am a lucky girl! Every year he surprises me with something big. One year he flew me to Vegas for the weekend, another year we stayed at the Grand America in Salt Lake, this year we stayed in the Majestic Suite at Hotel Monaco. He always makes sure it's an event and he pays special attention to the details. Whether it's buying me a new dress for dinner, or having chocolate covered strawberries waiting in our hotel room when we arrive. I am always suprised and impressed with his creativity.
Although, I absolutely love this special treatment on my birthday, it is a hard act to follow. When his birthday rolls around I never know how to give back everything he's given me. I am also not very good with suprises. I get so excited about them and then end up giving it away without even realizing. This year I was bound and determined to suprise my Todd.
I decided to throw him a suprise party on Friday. Todd's friends, family, and co-workers all attended. Upon arrival a situation came up and I had to stall... I took the long way to the house and circled the neighborhood a couple of times. By the time we pulled in the drive way Todd knew something was up, but for my satisfaction pretended to be somewhat suprised!

Friday was so much fun, but the suprises were not over yet. On Saturday I took Todd to Flemings, one of our favorite steak houses, and then we stayed at the Little America in Salt Lake City. It was a nice little get-a-way and gave us some time to enjoy each other. If I could have one wish, and only one wish, it would be to have more time with my husband, all the time we share is never enough. Sad the weekend is over, but excited for the birthday's to come! :)
