The thoughts of a newly married, recently graduated, christ-seeking, pastor-to-be

100th Post!

So I suppose one could consider this a milestone in the blogging community. So Yippee!

Okay onto other things,

Today is my birthday, I am the grand age of 23. What does this mean? Pretty much another year older and no perks to benefit from. I can never remember but I think things happen at both 24 and 25, I think that happens to make up for the nothingness that occurs with 22 and 23. But yes, I am now another year older.

I had a first this year though, a SURPRISE birthday party, and I capitalilze that because my girlfriend Karina did such an amazing job that I (who consider myself ot be pretty observant) was totally surprised, clueless, dumbfounded, etc... She pulled it off by using her innate knowledge of me. She made an itinerary for my day, so I could happily go on through the day always knowing what was coming next. How did the day go? I will tell you.

Well first of all, she did this on Saturday, since she had the day off.

I woke up in the morning, showered, dressed, yadda yadda, and then she came and picked me up. She took me out for breakfast at Lumberjack's one of my favorite breakfast places, and we enjoyed a hearty meal. Yummy!

After this was time for another favorite of mine... Coffee, we went to Starbucks and I got to have an oh so yummy tall nonfat latte. We played cards (another favorite thing of mine to do) and then we went and saw Shrek the Third. So far the day has been nothing short of amazing. I know that next we are going to go have lunch at Red Robin with our friend Merissa and Zach. And well, Zach's archery competition went long, so lunch was put off till 3. As we are driving there Zach calls needing a ride, so we pull around and go back to my house to pick him up.

I start changing things over to my car since I am tired of using Karina's gas, and then I go inside, my room has been all tidied up, and I thought to myself, what kind roommates I have. Karina and I go upstairs to grab Zach and as we turn into the kitchen.... what do I see and hear?

15 People Standing and saying... "SURPRISE" and start singing to me. I was shocked, dumbfounded, and I will update this with pictures later. Yes I was totally stunned. I love my girlfriend. Karina had food all ready, and there were many a card (all packing the coordinated gift shopping of Best Buy gift cards). I t was truly amazing, so to all my friends who showed up thank you again so much, it was amazing.
