Ben Goes All Out!!

Last night Ben sent me on a "scavenger hunt" for my Birthday. It was very cute- he hid clues and then would drive me around town. First stop: Mini-golf at Mr. Biggs (I hope you like cheesy pictures...)



The next clue took me to one my favorite restaurants: Applebee's! YUM!!!! I ordered the Spicy Orange Chicken- delicious!!!! Then, the next clue led me to a little monster with lots of teeth with a mohawk that liked to jump up and down on people's bellies: Audra!!!!There, I was greeted by the Little Monster herself and a gift from Ben: the Zumba workout videos. I wanted these videos because you Latin Dance your way to burn up to 1,000 calories an hour- and it looks like a ton of fun! We will see...
My next clue led me to home and an awaiting cheesecake which Ben made by himself (but I'm guessing had a little help from his mom). It's kind-of a funny story with the cheesecake: He has always bragged about how he makes a fantastic cheesecake, but he never made it for me so I always tease him that he has made cheesecake for all of his other girlfriends, but never me. He insists he has never made cheesecake for any girlfriend, but I tease him anyway. But now, he has officially made me a cheesecake (which was absolutely DELICIOUS by the way- he will defnitely be asked to make it again in the future!!!) so I guess I can't tease him anymore!!!


Thank you sweetheart for all of the thought and effort you put into making such a special night- it was perfect!!!

I'm going to need lots of great memories/sympathy/attention at my 30th too...perhaps Ben can coach Jason a little. ;) Be watching the mail...and I hope you got my birthday text message which was the best I could do on vacation. Sorry about that.
