A Fun Birthday Surprise!

>> Friday, October 28, 2011

Today is my 35th birthday. Crazy! Seriously I don't see how it's possible. Thirty five sounds so grown up and I sure as heck don't feel all grown up yet.

I took the day off to play today and run some fun errands. Baby sale, trip to Nordstrom, and a trip to H&M to find the perfect fall sweater for the baby. I didn't have super great luck at Nordstrom my first round in, but on my second trip back (on the way to the car) I scored and received one of the best birthday surprises yet.

I spied with my little eye a photobooth prop...a very familiar looking prop. In an instant I knew where it had come from before finding the other props used in the photo strip.

Who would've thunk it?! If someone would have told me ten years ago (when I was making the daily trip up those Nordstrom store steps to clock into my Loss Prevention job) that my work would be displayed not only in those same Nordstrom store windows but the Nordstrom stores *nation wide* I would have fallen out of my seat.

After the shock wore of a bit I headed upstairs and met with the Visual/Display manager to ask if I might be able to score those life size photo strips once the display to changed. Sadly, he wasn't too confident that he would get the clearance from the photographer due to copyright and legal but he did say he would give it a shot and ask and If South Center doesn't work... there's still five more local stores to ask. :)

Our Wonderful Begining

Sunday, December 2nd 2007

What a day, I felt like the luckiest kid in the world! We feel so blessed that we were able to share our day with friends and loved ones. It truly was one of the happiest days of both our lives and we loved each and every minute of it!

Our planning process was a whirl wind. Who says you can’t plan the perfect day in three months, and have a blast doin’ it?! I realized during our planning how truly lucky I am to have Jack to stand beside. Our happy day was truly a testimony of team work, love, compromise and countless episodes sittin’ side by side watching WE tv wedding shows.

Small and intimate was our goal...no maid of honor, no best man, no big wedding party, just Jack’s adorable nieces as the flower girls. Our original guest count was not to exceed 50, a comfortable 100 graced us with their presence. It was intimate, warm, exciting…it was the best day we’ve shared together.

Come Take a Peek!
