2-8

Today I'm 28 years old. Feels kind of weird because it just snuck up on me after the whirlwind year I've had.
This morning I woke up at 7:30 AM and John had my present and card set out for me. He is too funny sometimes. He won't tell me what we are doing tonight to celebrate, but knowing him it will be great (remember my last birthday I got engaged!).

Here is a photo of my loot from this morning. He got me a bunch of 'The Office' themed post-its and pens as that is our favorite show and a sterling silver necklace shaped like a heart with the words "Be Mine" on it from my new favorite jewelry designer Jessica Elliot. Also note that he underlined Jacobi as he has written my full name on my cards since day one and Jacobi isn't going to be around that much longer!



I got a pretty arrangement of flowers from my Dad and a very creative set of 'non wedding related' gifts from Erin, not to mention wonderful cards, calls, emails and sentiment from all my friends and family. I truly feel blessed to know that many people love and support me. I'm incredibly sentimental so I hope each person knows just how much the little things mean to me.

I'm sure I'll have some more photos and stories from tonight so check back this weekend :)

P.S. Nan, I'm so glad you know how to write comments now as it makes me smile

Happy birthday, Jackie!

The necklace is beautiful and those "Office" products are great. (I heart Jim, too!)

You have such a thoughtful fiance; I can't wait to hear what he has in store for you tonight! Enjoy yourself -- you deserve it!
