I Heart Michael!

This year, Michael gave the best birthday present! For a while, I have wanted to go to the outlet malls in San Marcos to go shopping. Although Michael didn't necessarily want to go, he agreed that for my birthday, we could go. So Saturday morning, we got up and headed to San Marcos. We had a great time! We jammed out in the car and had great conversations. We had lunch in San Marcos and then hit the malls. (Oh yeah- and on our way, we stopped to get gas, and 3 little girls were selling Girl Scout cookies there--we bought 7 boxes!)First we hit Nike and got a great deal on some work-out attire...like dry-fit running shorts for $19. Next, we went to Crate and Barrel. We replaced some glasses that we broke during the move and one that our dear friend Chris Normal dropped and shattered (love you Chris!). We went to Ann Taylor where I was able to find some great work clothes, and Michael got work clothes at J. Crew. We also got AMAZING deals at Banana Republic. The most surprising thing was at the Coach store. If you know me, you know that I have wanted a Coach purse for a long time. If you know Michael, you know that he thinks they are ridiculous and need-less and refused to get me one. That all changed this weekend. We walked in and I found a purse that I had looked at on-line--and it was in the clearance section! Yay! And then, the most surprising thing of all was that Michael actually bought it for me! Wow!
After shopping, we met my friend Molly for sushi in south Austin and then headed home. It was a great, great way to celebrate my 25th birthday.
Thanks Michael! I love you thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much! (Actually more, but you get the idea)
