Let the Weekend Begin!

Bon Voyage from the Morrises!

Oh, we are not really headed anywhere! I did want to show you this cute mat that Brandon's mom sent to us for our anniversary.

We do have a bunch of fun activities lined up this weekend to celebrate. Tomorrow we are going to go spend the day at the Hotel do Caracol to pretend that we are on a vacation. We will be playing in their pool overlooking the ocean, getting massages at their spa, and we have dinner reservations set up tomorrow evening as well. On Sunday, we our going to take it easy and a friend of ours is going to go take family pictures (Mas included) of us, since our engagement pictures never came out how we wanted. Plus we need something for Christmas cards! We have some other things we have to attend that day, that are non-anniversary related.

It has been a hectic week, and we are looking forward to relaxing with each other and celebrating our love for one another. I'll stop there so I do not bore you with lovey-dovey mushiness. :)

Here is to our FIRST YEAR!!

Back to the Daily Grind.

B is back! He arrived Sunday afternoon, and what a joy it is to have my playmate back. :) He had a lovely time, enjoyed sushi, Starbucks, and places upon past 6:30pm. The time difference did kick him in the butt a little. Since it was such a short trip he had no problem readjusting back to Azores time. He did take a couple pictures of Portugal and St. Louis but it has been a busy week so haven't gotten a chance to get them on the computer.

He did bring back a surprise with him for me. Our anniversary month is almost upon us. I know everyone always says it, but can you believe how time flies? 1 year almost gone! Anyhow, I am sure I have mentioned, we don't have the biggest array of shopping here, so it seemed as if it were perfect timing for B to head back for the states to do some present shopping. He came back with a Kitchen Aid Mixer!!! (in red) So excited! He had to give it to me early because obviously it is a little too big to hide. I was ecstatic! Our kitchen seems so complete now. I got to play with it the other day, and let me just tell you it is awesome! I took some pictures of it too, to post, but those also have not made it on to the computer.

Other than that news, same ol' same ol' over here in the middle of the ocean. B is hard at work, as well as I am working another VBS all week long (long story). Looking forward to next week...

6 more days till my parents arrive!!
