Yesterday was my birthday, and I gotta say: It was a pretty darn good day :) It's never QUITE as awesome when your birthday is on a weekday because as an adult that means you usually have to work on your birthday... but it was still pretty darn great. Kevin spoiled me rotten, as he always does, and I felt very loved all day long! We went out to dinner last night to a Mexican restaurant that I love (and I had TWO mango mojitos! Wooohoo!!), and then we came back home and watched Rogue One. And tonight we are going to see Beauty and the Beast! We thought it might be too hectic if we tried to go see Beauty and the Beast last night AND go out to dinner after work... so the celebration was split into two evenings :)
My daffodils from Kevin!
And this weekend, we are heading to St. Michaels, MD for one night! St. Michaels is where McGee and I first met about 7 years ago. Crazy, huh? We're excited to go there and see it, and I think we're going to sneak over to the house where we first met! Our friends' family used to own the house (and my friend Colleen brought me and some other friends there, and McGee's friend Timmy (Colleen's brother) brought him there, and that's how we met!), but they sold it years ago... so we have no idea who owns it now. It's down this really quiet road, so hopefully it doesn't bother anyone living there that we'll be going there... but I also kinda don't care. Haha :) We'll be staying at a hotel in St. Michaels, so I'll be sure to take lots of pictures! So far (fingers crossed...) the weather is looking pretty perfect.
This is the restaurant in St. Michaels where McGee and I went for dinner (with the whole group) the weekend we first met. I remember I strategically made sure to sit right by him because I thought he was super cute and hilarious, and I also remember being mesmerized (and a little grossed out) by his crab dismantling expertise! I do not like shellfish (so I ordered a burger or something), but McGee loves it and is quite skilled at dissecting/dismantling them to eat them. I was amazed (and grossed out). Haha :)
Here's little St. Michaels! There are more houses, stores, etc to the left, but that's the general idea :)
Last weekend was a good yet busy one! We did a few house projects including the HUGE project of painting the office, so now that's all done except for a few touch-ups and then putting everything back. Our guest room and the office are both total disasters right now because of painting (and also doing the floors in the guest room), so we just need to find some time to put everything back together. I will take pictures of both rooms for you after we get them re-assembled! Here are a few "before" pictures for the office, so you can see how badly it needed to be painted!
Can you see the outlines on that wall from the pictures that the previous owners had up?
And these walls are just white. I painted them a very pretty color which you will have to wait to see!! :)
On Sunday evening we also went over to McGee's parents' house to watch the final two episodes of Breaking Bad with them! They've been making their way through the whole series and they've been loving it, and we told them we should all get together to watch the final two episodes with them. We had a really nice dinner (Mo and Mook came over too!), and MY GOSH I forgot how amazing those last two episodes are (we saw them years ago). That is one series that ended totally perfectly in my opinion. Such a great show!
I hope you are all having a great week so far! We're about half-way to the weekend again!! We can do it! Love you all!
