Kyle's Big Surprise!

Happy Birthday to me! If you know Kyle, you know he loves surprises. I, on the other hand, get very anxious when I know a surprise is coming. I spend so much time trying to figure out what the surprise is and how exactly it is going to effect me, I can never just enjoy it. Well, this time was a little different. Kyle wouldn't tell me anything significant except that it was big. So of course I was excited.

I had recently found myself unable to workout in the workout room at my cafe that is there for the residents of the surrounding apartments. If you know anything about my schedule this semester, you'll understand why it was perfect for me just to workout after work and not have to add going somewhere to my already packed schedule. So I started shopping around to buy an elliptical for myself. I figured having my own would be worth just the anxiety of trying to workout at the rec or some place else. That's where Kyle's surprise comes in. My awesome BF took it upon himself to get me my very own Elliptical for my birthday. Of course some people may say that this is a horrible present to get your already extremely self-conscience girlfriend, but obviously you don't know me very well. I could not have asked for a more perfect gift. I enjoy working out, I want to workout. And in the end hopefully it will give me a little needed boost of confidence. So calm down everyone, I love the present. And I am very much enjoying it. The pictures are Kyle and Kyle assembling it in my livingroom. It took them over 2 1/2 hours while I waited with Jess in my room. You guys are awesome!

Shannon,

I think it's a great present if it's what you've been wanting. Kyle is always so generous!
