What do I want for my Birthday?

My birthday is coming up on July 6th!

I'll admit, I've always been really tough to buy gifts for. I'm very picky about clothes, purses, fragrances, and even jewelry... so the Mr. doesn't even try to buy those for me usually. And now that we're married and share money, we usually just tell each what we want for Birthday/Christmas gifts and take each other out for a fun dinner. Boring, I know. But very practical.

So when the Mr. asked me what I wanted for my Birthday I responded:

1. Sprinkles Cupcakes!

Sprinkles cupcakes are just amazing. So much better than all of the copycat cupcakes out there. My mouth is watering just thinking about their vanilla or red velvet cupcakes.


2. A Bose iPod SoundDock

I have a generic iPod docking station that I use all the time. It is time to upgrade. Does anyone have a Bose? Do you love it?

3. To deposit money into our "Europe Trip" ING Account.

We're going to Europe next summer! Definitely to Italy and Germany and maybe to one other country. So my new favorite thing to do is to transfer money over to our ING "Europe Trip" Account that I set up especially to save money for an amazing trip!

PS- If you're a July Birthday, head over to Lis Loves.

I have never had a sprinkles cupcake. I really need one! Lis has a great list as well!

My sister-in-law has that BOSE docking station, it works really well and the remote works from pretty far away, we use it for all our parties. I think it's a good investment :) Oh, and you should visit Paris when you're in Europe!

Hope all your birthday wishes come true!

And now I need a cupcake. Do they deliver???

I really hate saving money, but it is so much more fun when you are saving for something fabulous like a Europe trip!

I'm more than a little jealous of those of you who live by a Sprinkles. Whenever I'm in Dallas, I insist on loading up. It is God's Chosen Cupcake.

Lis said...

Great list!! I've never had sprinkles cupcakes. Am I deprived?

And thanks so much for the shout-out!

Also which docking station do you have for your ipod? I want to get one and really can't spend bose type $ on it right now. I've just been looking at the ihomes.

My mom has a Bose docking station. It's great... I'd recommend it!

I keep a file folder called "Stuff I Want" with pictures from websites or pages ripped from magainzines. I conveinently set it on the counter when my birthday, Mother's Day or our anniversary is coming up. He knows what it is and actually looks at it.

And what are Sprinkles cupcakes? I've never heard of such a thing. Must be one more thing the South hasn't caught onto yet!
