23rd Birthday, 3rd Anniversary

We have so much to celebrate during the months of April and May! My birthday, April 25th. Our anniversary, May 2nd. Mother's Day, (May 8th this year). Luke's birthday, May 26th. Poor Drew last night said that he doesn't like having 3 weeks in a row of "presents or cards" to buy me. I told him he doesn't need to worry about it! One thing will do. :) He surprised me with a trip to San Diego which I posted about last week, and also a gift card to H&M! Easter fell the day before my birthday (it was late this year! It's never been that close to my b-day before.) So we celebratedall weekend with my fam. On my actual birthday, my brother and sis-in-law Leesha offered to watch Luke. We went to dinner, shopped, got shaved ice, and Drew even took me to get a manicure. I have never had just a plain old manicure before. It was nice! He got one too :) Here are some pics from my b-day. I don't know why but 23 sounds so much older than 22!
23!

At the end of our date with our shaved ice. My fave!

He loves it...

I have been playing piano since 1st grade, and my whole life I practiced and played on one piano until my Senior year of high school. My parents got a newer, nicer piano, and told me I could have the "old" (but awesome) piano. I didn't have a place to put it of course, going off to college, so I let my grandma keep it at her house until I had a place for it. Well, we FINALLY are established in a house in which we'll probably be in for a while. So...last weekend, my parents brought my piano down! Although it wasn't necessarily a birthday present, it was my favorite present!My parents also gave me clothes money and some shirts. Thanks mom and dad! Here it is..it looks great and makes our house even more "homey." I've already taken advantage of having it by playing it every day!
She's a beauty!

Another favorite gift was from my mom-in-law. She makes cute cute blankets, and made me this one for my b-day. It's SUPER long, like 10 feet, and just wide enough to fit Drew and I. I love it! It's also my wedding colors :) We tested it out and I can sit on one couch, Drew on the other, and we can still share it. It's awesome!She also got me a gift card to cheesecake factory. Thanks Lori!

Our 3rd anniversary was yesterday, May 2nd. Jerilyn, Drew's sis, offered to watch Luke so we went to Cheesecake Factory for dinner with the gift card from Drew's mom. YUMMY. It wasn't really weight watcher approved, but hey, our anniversary only comes once a year! Plus, I've almost reached my 11 week goal, so I figured it was okay to treat myself. The food was great and so was the company. I love my hubby!
Drew set this up after our date was over and Luke was in bed. I LOVE cuddling in the hammock.

These last 3 years have been so amazing. Since I've married Drew, we have had so many adventures and fun experiences. I know it wouldn't be near as exciting if I married anyone else. Drew has put up with so many mood swings and rocky days, I can't imagine anyone else understanding me the way he does. I love him so much and am so happy I have him for eternity. Love you, sweetie. Happy 3rd!
