Birthday/Valentine's Day Recap

Ok, so I didn't take ANY pictures on my Birthday or Valentine's Day. That is something that I wish I was better at...capturing moments with pictures!

My Birthday was on the 12th and it started out perfect! Before I had even woken up Colin had gone to the store and came back with a Dunkin Donuts iced coffee, the ingredients to make my mom's waffle recipe and flowers! What a sweet husband I have! After breakfast I had to go to work (we had a basketball game vs. UNC). While I was working Colin took my car to get the oil changed, put new windshield wipers on and got a new break light. Am I lame that I think that is romantic that he did that for me on his day off? HA! We went to the basketball game but lost by 2, oh well. After that we tried to go and buy a Honda Pilot (we have been researching SUV's for awhile and finally decided on the Pilot, we decided to trade Colin's Mustang in for something more practical). Our first attempt at buying the Pilot did not go well and we left without a car. But that was ok because we knew we could get the best deal for us by going elsewhere. We then went to PF Changs (yum) and to Yogurt Mountain for dessert. Let me tell you, that place is awesome! I turned 26 and now am officially closer to 30 than 20 but I think that 26 is going to be a good year!

Now on to the Valentine's Day recap...we don't really celebrate Valentine's Day and it was a beautiful day so we planned to grill out. Well plans changed when I wanted to try another Pilot dealership. Once I know what I want I have to have it then, I'm really an impatient person. So we tried a new one and we successfully negotiated a great deal and drove away with a pretty new SUV! I wanted to take Colin's picture with his Mustang but he said no. I know he will miss it but he seems pretty excited about his new car. Here it is below:
Thanks to everyone who made my Birthday special with phone calls, texts FB messages, cards, flowers and presents! Love you all!
