It's been a while!

For my Birthday (which is March 12th) Curtis made a scavenger hunt for me to go on to find where my present would be.
The first piece of paper I found said, "Here we are to start your treasure hunt for something small wrapped in a large box. I love you Whit, good luck!"
The second "clue" was in a card that Curtis had given to Emily, to give to me.  It said, "This one's easy.  Just think vampires! Because I'm a vampire you won't find an impression of me here." It took me a while, but I finally figured out, it must be the mirror.  Here is what I found.


The second clue I was given said, "Love made from scratch." Of course that led me to the bread maker where I found....


The third clue was, "Of all the movies we've watched, ya know how a copy of a copy isn't always as clear as the original?" We had just watch Mulitiplicity the night before so I knew just where to look.

The next clue was a little bit tricky for me, and I had to text Curtis a few times to get it.  It read, "If I said mine were bigger, I would be reffering to....."  I looked about a thousand places before being led to...


I found this CD between Curtis' shoes.  As I put it into the CD player I wasn't sure what I would find...it turned out to be the song "Dirty Laundry" by Don Henley and that led me to...


It was another CD and once again I wasn't sure what I would find.  Come to find out it was the song "Cold as Ice" by Foreigner.  This was the easiest clue by far!

 

But the next one honestly took me like an hour to get.  It said, "Here I'll build you something to cuddle with when I leave your bed and heart bare." Finally after texting Curtis like 50 times I figured out that he wanted me to go to Build-A-Bear in the mall here in Orem.  So I went to get in the car and....



There was one last clue.  It said, "But before you go I hope you find your gift in this giant box at rest where rubber and concrete meet while we sleep.  Be careful, I'm fragile."  It took me a minute, but I finally made my way out to the garage where I found...


This HUGE box.  I started to open it, and much to my surprise, out hopped my AMAZING husband, to wish me a happy birthday!  Can I just say, BEST gift ever!  It was so fun and I am so glad that he was my gift at the end.  


Here is the end result of our trip to the mall.  It was an amazing birthday!  Curtis made me a website, led me on a crazy scavenger hunt, took me to Build-A-Bear, and then out to eat at Texas Roadhouse.  It was  so awesome!  Also, my way awesome sister-in-law took me out to get a pedicure!  What a great day!


And here is my final picture.  Curtis and I had the chance to go to the Holi festival of colors and it was so much fun!  Here we are, covered in colored chalk celebrating with the Hindus.  I love my life, and my sweet husband!!
