I am a very spoiled girl this year. Nick surprised me with a beautiful ring. For a long time I've wanted a ring with my birthstone (amethyst) because not only is it a nice feminine color, it's my favorite color! Imagine that ;) I've had a few pieces of birthstone jewelery over the years like a small necklace when I was in jr.high or a ring in highschool, so I was really excited to get an 'upgraded' version for my birthday. Besides, it doesn't hurt that it's VERY large and surrounded by little diamonds. It is beautiful, and I can't wait for it to get back from being sized so I can wear it!
The bling.
Nick was so cute this year. He got up before I woke up and 'scrapbooked' me a card! So sweet. He's a guy who'll always say what he's feeling, but I don't have many things to keep where it's written down. I got a little choked up just reading his sweet card. I'm sure lucky to have him!
For dinner we went to my favorite restaurant, Joeys, and I had a fabulous meal of Chicken Lettuce Wraps accompanied by a delicious Raspberry Burst to drink.You should try it!
I was so glad Kay and Melvin were able to celebrate the evening with us, and clearly Bennett had a great time too. Looks like Nick is getting somehands on practice :)
We capped off the weekend with a Super Bowl party at our house (Go Saints!),so I whipped up some yummy sugar cookies for our guests.
Don't I look like Suzy homemaker? I try... ;)
