Last week Niel enjoyed his 29th Birthday! Since he had to work on his big day we ended up deciding to truly celebrate it on the following Saturday! Niel had no idea what we were going to do. I am absolutely horrible at keeping secrets, but I wanted to plan an extremely fun day for him. Friday night I put together a scavenger hunt around Niel's condo. In order for Niel to find his next gift he had to follow the hint given to him on the sheet of paper he would find placed with every gift. A little "insider" on Niel. He is a little kid trapped in a 29 year olds body, so the excitement and pure joy this brought to him was the cutest thing you could imagine. After all his gifts were found and placed in the treasure box I first presented him with, it became apparent that he just put together an extremely cool GeoCaching Kit. It was full of Geocaches we can go plant, tools we may need, logs to place in the geocaches for others to sign, "make it yourself" geocaches, travel tags, and things we can bring with us on our geocaching adventures. The very last clue led him to an envelope that described what we were going to be doing up until dinner the next day. A Day Full Of Geocaching.
The next day we woke up early and headed out. We spent 5 hours hiking around a town in Colorado we both weren't familiar with. Minus sunburns and spider bites, it was so much fun. We ended up finding 15 geocaches that day. There is nothing we love more than spending time with each other out on adventures. We love checking out new places and seeing things we normally wouldn't ever think of going to see.
The night before, I gave Niel an envelope with GPS coordinates of the place we were going to have dinner at 5pm after geocaching. Niel navigated his way through town until we drove up Braun's Bar and Grill. As we parked I handed Niel his final gift! It was a gift bag with an envelope inside. Niel's eyes lit up as he opened the envelope to find tickets to the Denver Bronco's football game that night. We both have never been to an NFL game before so we were stoked. In the gift bag were Bronco shirts for us to wear to the game.
The rest of the night was a blast. We had an amazing dinner, and then walked 1/2 a mile to the game. The Bronco's ended up loosing, but we didn't mind too much. We were so excited to be spending time together doing something we both have never done before. It was a perfect day!!!
