update while he sleeps and I can't

I am lucky enough to be spending the rest of my life with a truly amazing man that I couldn't possible thank enough for everything that he does. And lately he has done some pretty big things. My birthday usually ends up being a bit of a mess so he has planned way in advance to try to prevent that. He bought us and my dad tickets to go to an Orioles game up in Baltimore. If that isn't enough to get you going the seats are 2nd row along the 3rd base line. How freaking exciting is that! So we are making a weekend of it, seeing some family and hitting DC while there. Even though the weekend was "supposed to be" about me a little plotting with my sister let me set something up for him to, a good ole fashion Maryland crab boil. He was introduced to crabs a little big back and liked them Maryland is known for its blue crabs and baseball so it seems like a perfect way to top it off.

Brandon also managed to slash most of our remaining wedding payments and play off the hotel for the honeymoon. I am very lucky to have someone that was so willing to go above and beyond to cover our wedding costs. He even indulged me in purchasing a few things that we weren't really planning on and I would have normally dropped the cash on. But it is such a great feeling to have all of the major things paid off.

We were able to cross quite a few wedding things off the list the past couple weekends. Our clothes are pretty much done, my dress has been ordered and he only needs to order his pants now. The bridesmaids just need shoes and the groomsmen are done. We picked up or ordered a lot of the smaller stuff that we needed as well as a good bit of decorating stuff. So the crafting has started. A new list will have to be made soon.

We celebrated our 1 month anniversary this weekend with a nice bottle of wine and some bowling, something we haven't done in a while. Minus the mass amount of idiots we ran into it was still fun. We managed to keep with tradition and each won a game. We are now planning what to do for our big anniversary next month.

Today my work was called off due to snow and ice so we are getting an extra day to hang out, at least until he has to go in. So we have everything to make pancakes with our new perfect pancake maker, movies and popcorn and stuff to cook dinner together if he doesn't have to go in. But if he does there will still be dinner made.
