Birthday Surprises





So it was my birthday yesterday....turning 24 is no big deal, right? I don't feel older, I don't look older, the only difference from turning 23 to turning 24 is, now I'm married. I have never been one that expects a gift and especially not flowers (mostly because of my allergies). So I diligently working and here comes an arrangement of flowers. They were gorgeous. All lime green and yellow in a lime green vase. I was definitely surprised. But when I open the card, it was from my parents! I don't think they have ever sent me flowers, so needless to say I was a little shocked (in a good way). So afterward I go to lunch with Raymond. We are talking, and I told him about the flowers Mom and dad sent me and just nonchalantly asked if he was sending me flowers. He said he wasn't and we went on eating (this is after I got a new sandwich, because of a nicely placed hair). I then asked if he was going to give me a card, that was the least he could do. He likes to tease me. He told me the day isn't over and I just need to wait (thats like telling a kid he can't have candy until after dinner). Just not fair. Well I go back to work, and I'm not in my chair more than 15 minutes and here comes this monstrous arrangement. Its over 3 feet tall!! I KNEW this was from Raymond! So my smile came back to my face (not like it ever left) and I am now surrounded by flowers everywhere!

Beginnings

Ok, so Jamie inspired me to try this out! I'm not big on sharing things, but this looked like fun. I'm looking forward to what all will eventually be on here! And who would have guessed that I would title it sunflowers & frogs! So here is to a new beginning.
