my lover boy.

i'm usually good with presents, and a little less good with cards, but still pretty good. this year i kind of was bad with both. meaning no card and almost the right gift, but in the wrong form (shopko has like 3 blu-rays you guys... so i settled for just a plain old dvd that i knew he wanted, with the promise of a blu-ray, just... later. at least he liked the movie, right?!)

and yes, we both got each other movies.

except he ended up getting me 2. (21 AND Stranger Than Fiction. both perfect picks).

my favorite part about coming home to this (well, it was originally in a plastic cup held up by the dvd... so, naturally, when i picked up the dvd, excuse me, blu-ray, the flowers, and water, spilled all over) is the block letters. I LOVE IT WHEN HE WRITES IN BLOCK LETTERS. it kind of just reminds me of 4th grade. and i love that he still does them, for special occasions:)

and another thing i always look forward to from z is his cards. he always nails it on the cards.

am i right? that's all i ever wanted, someone who will give me their fries when i run out. really though.

we stopped by the smoots to drop off some condie's chocolate covered strawberries (thanks pamela, all your hard work is really paying off for us) for them and the petersons. we had to get some baby time in before our BIG DATE.

we ended up deciding to hit not one, but two places for din. my personal fav, paces dairy ann... and then off to panda for z.
both happy campers.
don't you just want to say, hey, don't over do it over there on vday helms.
well, we like low key, non-fancy date nights/ actually just take out.
it's just more... us.
in fact, i changed out of heels and my lace top and into a hoodie and jeans for this date. because z likes that liz best. that, i can do, love.

we topped the night off by watching paranormal activites 3 with candice and dave, one of our go-to couples. there always good for a movie night, that is for sure. it was awesome/ freaky freaky freaky.
and oh so romantic.

until next year...
