~ Birthday Surprise ~

Well I must say, Travis successfully planned a surprise birthday celebration for me and I couldn't be happier to tell you all about it!

After spending the evening of Friday, October 5th at the Sheraton in Red Deer for the Engaged Bridal Show to see Randy Fenoli from Say Yes To The Dress, we were pretty exhausted because we didn't get home until 1:00am.  So I thought I would at least get to sleep in on my birthday, but I was wrong.  Travis woke up saying "GET UP, WE SLEPT IN AND NEED TO GET READY TO GO."  Okay, so he didn't yell at me, but he seemed a little panicked.  At this point, I still have no idea what we are doing, so I don't even know what to wear.  He finally told me to dress warm and comfortable so yoga pants, sweater and running shoes it was and off we went out the door!

We got in the truck and started driving towards the mountains!  Now of course, the rocky mountains are one of my favourite places to be, but even more so than the mountains are waterfalls.  So after about an hour of driving and a million guesses on my part, Travis finally confessed that he was taking me to Crescent Falls.

The weather was great and the view was stunning, but I was pretty confused when he asked me if I was ready for lunch considering we were in the middle of nowhere!  So I said yes and we found some picnic tables and out comes Chef Travis with a fully prepped meal for us.  Steak Salad with fresh veggies and cheese and crackers with a view of the mountains... what more could a girl ask for!?  And for dessert... a little birthday pie from a local restaurant... Lemon Meringue for the Birthday Girl and Pumpkin for the Birthday Planner! 

After a fabulous lunch, we got to spend some time hiking up the mountain and enjoying the view of Crescent Falls... with Nixon too of course!  

It was the perfect birthday!  I love my future husband so much!
