Birthday Week!

Guess who's 23? Here's a little hint...  (if you know him, you've seen this. Not the gun part, just the booty...)

Sean turned the big 2 - 3 last Thursday. Why celebrate 1 day when you celebrate for a week? Birthday's are pretty big deal to me. I also love traditions - so I had to make his first married birthday a great one just to set a good precedent. 

He got a present and had activities/dinner planned everyday for a week.

His family's gift kicked off birthday week with a box full of goodies...

New snowboarding jacket! Just in time for the season's first snow this week.

Next, we hit up iFly Utah for a little indoor skydiving. Sean scored the Laker's Purp/Yellow jumpsuit.

How cute is this guy?

Flowrider

 Time for some flowriding! Sean is a natural with water sports. He was spoiled growing up in southern California and obviously prefers doing anything in the ocean. I was nervous how he'd feel about an indoor version -- he said he liked it much more than he expected. (Surprising response because he wiped out A LOT.)

One of the birthday week gifts: new Ron Burgundy suade ES's.

 A little PF Changs, our FAVORITE!

Not all the gifts were elaborate. One day I loaded him up with Shawn White gum. Seemed fitting.

Tucano's!

Unfortunately the birthday boy came down with Shingles during birthday week! (I'll spare you the pictures!) What 23 year old gets shingles?! It put a damper on Halloween and made us cancel a few birthday plans. Happy to report he's about 95% recovered and back to normal.

 With all of Sean's sick time, I experimented with my first attempt at an ice cream cake. It tastes better that it looks.

GRAND FINALE! 

Sean knew what was coming, but I saved it for the VERY ending of Bday week. Don't call me mean-- he got an iPad! I'm pretty jealous of him. He's obsessed with all things Apple.

Sean loves his Mac and I love mine. I spoiled myself a bit for his birthday. It's just what he would have wanted.

I almost forgot. Before he got his iPad, we got friends together to try out the Steak Center. We laugh every time we drive by. We were pleasantly surprised. Pretty good meal for a good price -- if you don't mind all the Mormon references (sitting on pews, eating green jello...)

Thanks to all the friends and family that made this week so fun for the both of us!
