You're 28, You're Beautiful and You're Mine


Wohoo! Another birthday post!!! So it's a day early, but part of me is afraid I won't be able to post tomorrow since we still do not have internet at our house. We just got back from our vacation and Ben is making some calls so we can be up and running with the internet sometime soon. Oh yeah, we also need a computer to be able to do that. Ben's laptop MAY work, but we're keeping our fingers crossed that our new iMac comes in the mail tomorrow (thanks Trevor).

I know it seems a little silly to have another birthday post so close to the last one that was for me, but it's not my fault that our birthdays are so close to each other! So far, we don't have anything super excited planned for the big day. If our computer arrives I guess that will be a sufficient birthday gift. I may even wrap it for him to open... if he's lucky. When we bought our Wii a couple weeks ago we decided that it would be for Ben's birthday, which is typical of the way we spend our money on big things; the item is always for a special occassion even if it's months away.

This will be the first time since we've been married that Ben doesn't have to go to school on his birthday, so just because of that maybe we'll do something extra special like drive to Niagra Falls or go out to eat. I got 3 different birthday cakes for my special day, so maybe I'll make him a cake. At any rate, I'm sure we'll have fun. I appreciate all that Ben does and being with him everyday for the last 4-5 weeks has made me realize how much I adore him. He's pretty awesome.

Wow, 28, he's getting up there... maybe this will be the year that Ben remembers how old he is.

Is that supposed to be your interpretation of "The Moose"?
