Two Years and Counting!


So as I said in my "Get Ready With Me" post on Wednesday, my Anniversary is actually on a Monday, and that Monday just happens to be his mom's Birthday as well, so needless to say, we chose another day!  We celebrated on Saturday, October 3rd, and let me tell you, it was absolutely amazing!
He arrived at my house more dressed up than I've ever seen him (other than when he is forced to be!)
Aren't we just adorable and matchy? 

We left around seven to make our eight o'clock reservation at The Peddler Steakhouse in Boone, NC.  I most definitely approve of this place!

Considering it was our Anniversary, I didn't feel it would be appropriate to be taking pictures... But I did find this picture online, and it is the EXACT meal I had!
So, I chose Teriyaki Steak with a baked potato, and it was amazing.  I'm not usually a big steak person, but I thoroughly enjoyed this one, and took most of it home for lunch the next day!
For dessert we had a Tollhouse Pie with ice cream! And decided to most definitely come back for dessert very soon, because there were so many that sounded amazing...

After dinner we went back to his dorm and did presents!
Guys, he did so well :)

The first thing he got me is the Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World 2016, because as you all found out in my Disney Announcement, I'm going to be going at the end of this year!  He also chose to get me this, because we have spent hours now, on multiple occasions, cuddled up in Barnes and Noble as I explain to him all the ins and outs of Disney!

Also on one of our Barnes and Noble dates, which are some of my favorites, he read this kids book to me! So he bought it for me, to read to our kids one day :)

The third thing he got me is Honey by Marc Jacobs.  We were just walking through Ulta one day when I pointed out that I thought this perfume was super cute and I really liked it.  I had no idea he'd go back and get it!  But it made me super happy!

The final thing he got me probably doesn't make a whole lot of sense, so let me tell you the story behind it... Earlier this summer I'd went running with one of my friends up our road.  We were about two miles from the closest house, with no cell service, and look off the side of the road to see a mama bear and her two cubs staring straight at us...  We had to turn and sprint away until we couldn't run anymore and by the grace of God found cell service so we could call someone to pick us up!  Since then, everyone has made fun of us for being scared saying that they see bears around here all the time!  Well let me tell you, seeing them two miles from civilization is much different than seeing them in a zoo or from the window of your house.  Maze is one of those people that has made immense fun of me, so to continue he bought me Bear Repellant Spray!
...Which I hope I never have to use.

He probably did the best with presents that he ever has! And definitely beat me this time!  I got him a Beatles shirt, CD, 3D Abby Road Shadow Box Picture, and Yellow Submarine Contacts case.  
After doing presents we hung out at his dorm for a little while, and then he took me home!

Overall, it was an amazing night!

Blueberry Crush Sangria

I'm considering a new series on this blog... How would you all feel about wine Wednesdays?  Not every Wednesday of course, but just to mix things up sometimes!  Most all of the drinks I make end up being something I concoct from various ideas and recipes I see online, and then add wine to it, and voilĂ , wine punch!  And I see a distinct lack of wine punch or creative sangria recipes on Pinterest, so look no further; I'm coming to the rescue! I made this drink recently for a party in which the color theme was purple, so of course we had to have a purple drink!  It was met with much praise, and I highly suggest giving it a try!  It is a very sweet drink, but can be toned down based on your preferences.  It would be the perfect way to bring in Spring!  (If it is actually Spring where you live, we just pretend here, it is still snowing) Ingredients Blueberry syrup: Bag of frozen blueberries (minus 1/3 cup.) 1 cup sugar 3 cups water ...

Ipsy: May

We are back again with an old classic!  I have had Ipsy for years and paused it on and off from time to time, but it is definitely still my favorite subscription by far.  If you would like to sign up,  you can click here ! I had planned to review this one, but I have to say, I was pretty disappointed with the contents of this bag!  The last few have been great, so I was pretty shocked!  The actual bag however is glittery and gorgeous ! The first thing in this bag that I was most excited about was this full size Ofra liquid lipstick in the color Versailles.  The color is ok in the tube, but on the lips it is very shimmery to the point of having a frosty finish with no color whatsoever.  Also, when I took the wand out of the tube it looked separated... Somehow simultaneously oily and chunky.  I tried to mix it a bit, but as a result it felt more like a gloss than a liquid lipstick.  Disappointing...  This is the Innisfree ...
