Dion's SURPRISE 21st!

So my awesome husband turned 21 last week, and Saturday night I threw him a surprise party. I know what you're all thinking..."he just turned 21?" "Wait, how old are you?" "Why'd you all get married so young?"

I will quickly address all those questions. Yes, I'm 23 and he just turned 21. Yes, I realize I "robbed the cradle." We got married because we love each other, and hey why wait? And no we do not have any children.

So now that is behind us, we can talk about Dion's awesome party- I had it at my parents house, where I got him to come to because I said we were dog-sitting while my parents went out of town. He said when he got there he knew something was up because I kept asking him when he was going to be there.

I was just impressed I lasted a whole 12 days before the party without telling him. I love surprising people but I also love telling them too early because I love to make people happy! One of my favorite things to do is make people feel important on their birthdays and I am so happy I was able to make Dion so happy!

We had a big cookie cake (which he only eats cookie cake) and THREE dozen Spalding donuts. Because he loves them and so does the rest of the state. (If you haven't had Spadling donuts you haven't lived.) And we also had 200 chicken wings from Indie's and if you haven't had chicken from Indie's, you also haven't lived.

Parties are awesome & I love hosting them! We had a great turn out and I had a lot of help from some awesome people. The next day, Dion even told me he had always wished for a surprise party & I'm glad we could all make that happen.

  1. I love this post! I also love what you said about Spalding donuts. That is so sweet of you to throw your husband a surprise party. I definitely understand what you mean about loving to surprise people but getting to excited to keep it a secret. I'm excited to read more from you!

  3. My wife is older than me (she may not want me telling the whole world that) and I think it's great that you didn't let something like that stand in the way of the truth of your life. And I love that you honor your marriage by writing about it so fully and so honestly on here. People need to do that. I'm glad you do.
