25 things

Yesterday was my birthday and I am now officially twenty-five years of age! After work I went over to see Britt where she made me a tasty-licious dinner: TACO SALAD!!! MMMMMMMMM I want more! I never knew that Taco Salad was served best with Catalina Dressing :) Brittant then gave me my presents, some pretty sweet clothes! :) Apparently, my wardrobe has been lookin' a little sappy as far as sprein/summer goes. Then to top it off, she baked me a DELICIOUS chocolate cake!! *wipes mouth with towel* It was an amazing evening to spend with my sweetheart :) She is so incredibly precious <3

Also, Britt and I found an apartment in Lansdale: one bedroom, yet really spacious (good closet space). It is located in a good area within the Souderton Ward boundaries. We're currently working on getting the wedding invites all in order and collecting addresses; along with finding some furniture (IKEA of course) and Big Lots seems to have some good stuff too. I ordered a tux for May 12th - 16th, and... I am currently eating Peanut M&M's :D

I love you Brittany!!!! --{--@ x 12 (pink)

Sssoooooooo..... this past Saturday was our one-year anniversary!!!! I told Brittany several weeks prior to plan on getting dressed-up for a special outing ;) She looked abasolutely amazing! And soooo beautiful! :) :) She was too adorable trying to pry it out of me on where we were going :) But, I amazingly did not crack (a rareity) and she was thoroughly surprised AND ALL SMILES!! :) We went to the William Penn Inn - a fancy shmancy kinda place with a harpist playing in the background and waiters that wait on you hand and foot. (And might I add how beautiful Brittany looked?) *ahem* Nonetheless, it was a great time for the both of us. <3

I love my girl! She is so precious to me and I cannot wait to marry her in the temple!!! :) :) :) FOREVER!! :) :) :)
