Jacob is the.best.husband.ever. I know that everyone feels that way about their spouse. And I'll let you go ahead and think it. But Jacob and I, we're a good match. I'm so thankful for him. And I think he's pretty awesome.
He gets the 'best gift ever' award for my birthday this year. I was completely blown away by how thoughtful and creative he was and how he made me feel loved and cared for.
The night started out with drinks at Metropole, which lead to him revealing the surprise that we were going to be staying at the 21c Hotel that night. In all honesty, I was a bit panicked. I didn't pack! I didn't have a clean pair of underwear, or clothes to wear home in the morning, let alone a toothbrush. Well, surprise #2 was discovered when we went upstairs to see the room and there was a drawer full of everything I needed. He went out and purchased new clothes, bras, and shoes, and packed everything else that I needed for the next day. Amazing. And everything fit. Even the bras. Because he was clever enough to go to Nordstrom and have them look up my account and he got my size and favorite style. Serious points here, folks.
We enjoyed dinner at Sotto and a champagne toast at the rooftop bar at Metropole. The next morning he woke me up with the final surprise: I was going to have a massage, manicure, and pedicure at the salon upstairs. Score!
The weekend was relaxing, refreshing, and so much fun. The date night was perfect and I am so thankful for a husband who chooses to be so thoughtful and creative.

For Jacob's birthday we actually headed back to Sotto with his family. Dinner was just as wonderful, but I didn't get any pictures that night. I did manage to snap a few pictures of his annual chicken and dumplings dinner at our house. Jacob's mom spends a whole day preparing for this wonderful dinner that holds a lot of history for the family. She passed down the recipe this year and the kids jumped in on the cooking:
