Our first 2 years

Last night Doug and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary. I came home from work to an apartment filled with candlelight, beautiful roses, and the cutest card lying beside my roses. I thought to myself, "I love these little romantic surprises." But where was the Mr. Romeo himself? Doug was hiding with his camera phone on video in the nearby closet waiting to jump out and scare me....where the romance was in that, i don't know. but it's just Doug! 

We were talking all throughout dinner of all the things we have done and places we have been/lived these past 24 months. We went from living a year in Hawaii to a summer in Washington D.C to another semester in Hawaii to Utah to living in Florida this summer...our next stop...another month 1/2 in D.C, then who knows where! Not to mention we have spent lots of time in California in between all of these individual moves. Who knows what lies in store for us in the future, but all I know is that we are going to have fun finding out!

Up close its even cuter there little face expressions. I love these types of cards!

Happy Anniversary Mr. Handsome!

Dear Mr. Handsome,

It has been a wonderful 2 years with you. I love you and can't wait to celebrate tonight at Cheesecake Factory! Happy Anniversary Love. I am so glad I have you to have and to hold for all of eternity!

Happy Rain Day

This last Sunday the sky was really angry out here in Orlando and it rained and thunder stormed all day so there were no fun Sunday adventures or activities this week. Our friend from work, Jacob cut Doug's hair for him and brought over his two cute adorable boys to play in the rain-so Dougie dug up some left over fire works from the 4th of July and we had a mini firework show in the parking lot. It turned out to be quite a delightful afternoon! Besides that, I went to the loveliest baby shower this week for two of my girlfriends. I love baby showers they are so fun and cute and everyone is just beaming. Speaking of beaming, these past 2 weeks Doug has had his new air soft gun attached to his hand like another appendage. He takes it with him everywhere he goes. He literally has set up a target next to the T.V. so he can watch his shows and shoot his gun simultaneously. The funniest is when he shoots while he is watching his gun shows or the Navy Seal Show-he gets really in to it then. I wish I had a video of it, but every time I turn it on, he stops and tells me to turn it off. Its funny to me to embarrass him. Thats about all thats been happening around here. Good times!

Don't even think about it ladies...he's mine

Paper Plates and Romance

Two nights ago I surprised my hard working man with a Hard Working Man Meal: Top Sirloin and his favorite red potatoes. I decided to try and add a little romance to this meal by lighting all the little odds and ends candles we have around our apartment so that he would come home to a romantic candle-lit dinner. it wasn't until the "plates" and "glasses" were set on the table and the food was served that I realized paper plates and plastic cups kind of dulls downs the fancy romance factor. Gotta love the summers!

Our snazzy set up. My plate looks like this.

Doug's plate looks like this...His steak is on a separate plate

He always turns his baked potatoes into potato casserole. 

This boy likes to have fun

Douglas had another itch this past Sunday to ride the Slingshot again so we took some friends and headed out. He rode it twice, I did not get on it this time. Instead I enjoyed the simple amusement of my husband at the forgotten things in life: adrenaline rush at great heights, go-carts, and getting deals at a carnival by pretending to be friends with the carnies. Oh the simple things in life.

If you could only see his smile coming around this turn...

Clearwater Beach

This Sunday Mr. Handsome and I went to Clearwater Beach which is on the Gulf Side of Florida. It was so beautiful! Even in Hawaii I have never felt ocean water so warm and sand so soft-it felt like heaven and we can't wait to go back. It was so relaxing laying on the beach even though is was crowded we put up our own little bubble and could not be disturbed and the water was even more relaxing, it felt like we were wading in a luke warm bath. It was a perfect day with my perfect man. I love our Sundays!

My Rolly-polly

I'm missing this little rolly-polly! I can't wait to see my little nephew in August though - he will be 1 years old by then-and I can't believe it!
