a quarter of a century


this little one turned twenty-five thursday.
i can't believe it. seems like yesterday i was driving up to the hawker home for one of the first times to celebrate his twenty-third. 
but his twenty fifth was one for the books
 & i was so lucky that i could spend the whole entire day with him.
we started off the day with mcdonald's breakfast in bed, since that is the birthday boys favorite.
i then blindfolded him and took him to the airport where he rented his first car as a 25 yr old. 
i had a convertible all saved but ben quickly asked for a camaro instead.

After, we raced (literally) over to pick up Adam for lunch at the kyoto.
 Ben then insisted we all go back to his parent's house and play super smash brothers. 
oh the demands of such a simple birthday boy. 
After smashing both Ben & Adam (thanks to my handicap), Ben & i headed up emigration canyon to see what the camaro could do. we are lucky hertz doesn't check the tires when you return the car because Ben was drifting around every curve possible. 
We then headed to the tennis club to play a few games. it was perfect weather. 
later that night Ben insisted he didn't want a fancy dinner but rather just pizza so we grabbed pizza to go and ate at the park. it was the perfect end to such a fun day. 
i loved surprising ben by having the whole day planned. he was in heaven.
i won't bore you with 25 reasons why i love ben or anything but i will say i never knew i could love someone this much. he is the best, most fun best friend/roommate/husband/lover. i love how every night feels like a sleepover & i love how he makes me laugh so very much.
