Sweet box decorated on all sides....see the teacup!!
Everything wrapped in beautiful black and white...my fav!!
Such a sweet notecard...
A sweet votive candle holder...in PINK!
And a darling crown magnet!! Dinner was fantastic as usual and then my hubs said, do you want to get dessert here or stop at that Sprinkles cupcake place you have been talking about? Oh, I want to stop so bad, but I think they are probably closed. We went there and they were open...well sorta! The place was packed and it was supposed to be closed at 7 but it was already 7:15. We got our selections and I carefully held the box all the way home. Of course, I was waiting to take pictures.
Look at that bottom right....that is pure chocolate heaven!!As we meandered through the streets to get to the freeway, all the side streets were barricaded off. Hubby at first thought there must me a parimeter set to find a criminal...but then it dawned on us...nope, the president is coming to the Phoenix area tonight.
We get on the freeway and we are chatting away, excited to try our cupcake. All of a sudden I said to my husband, there is no traffic on the other side of the freeway. The words were no sooner out of my mouth when I saw two motorcycles with lights blazing followed by about 50 police cars.....I was screaming...yep, I really was....it is the president's motorcade!!!!!! Sure enough, there was the president's limosene. Now, that is the closest this ole girl is gonna get to a president, any president. I am telling you....we were both excited. There is nothing like seeing a presidential motorcade in person. It is quite impressive! It was too dark to get a picture, even if I could have...but I had to share it with you...oh, and the cupcakes!!! YUMMO!
Yep, a Red Letter Saturday!

What a great box - decorated so darling! "CeeKay and the Red Letter Day" - sounds like a story book! Yep, it really is exciting to see the president or even his motorcade in person. I'm so glad you got to and that you had such a fun day - and that you called me to tell me all about it on your way home. Made my day too!
