My Anniversary Surprise

When I walked downstairs this morning, there was a surprise waiting for me in the living room.
Mr. Lakehouse had gone to, what is now, my favorite shop, and picked up this lovely shabby chic desk that I had seen a couple of months ago.
The desk was in the front window of the shop.
I saw it when I bought the antique, shabby vanity I recently blogged about.

I kept talking about how much I liked this desk, and that I wanted to try and save money to buy it.
Hoping it wouldn't sell before I saved enough for it.

It's our anniversary today, and we usually just go out for dinner.
I NEVER expected to find a gift waiting for me this morning.
Imagine how surprised I was to see the desk from the front window of the store sitting in my living room!!!
I love the little mirror, the locks, knobs, and scroll work. I also love that it's all creamy white, chipped, and shabby.
Most of all, I love my husband. He treats me above and beyond what I deserve....always.
