luckiest girl.

I possibly think Valentines has made it to the top of my favorite holiday as of yesterday!
I woke up to sunshine and a good long workout which I needed.
I had a great day at work and to make it even better my dad surprised me with flowers & a very nice card! He is so thoughtful!
My dad is the best.
Then I came home and took a needed nap.
I got ready for the evening that Eric had been keeping a secret.
He told me to leave at 6:30....
I was minutes behind schedule but when I walked out to my car there was a note from him.
Next thing I know he's walking out from my culdesac with a single red rose!!
I was SO surprised!
We took his car to "our plans"
While we were driving he called his mom in a panic and said he needed to grab something he had left there really quick. {I thought it was a present he had wrapped and left there}
We pulled up and there was a huge red heart lit up on the gazebo next to her house.
I was surprised AGAIN.
He told me we were having dinner in the gazebo.
It was perfect.
I was greeted by a dozen pink roses & a delicious candlelit dinner.
.......



{the rice is in a heart shape}


I am so lucky.

our gorgeous dessert. {are you kidding me}
After we were done with our meal he suggested eating dessert inside.
I didn't think anything of it.
We walk in but he takes me downstairs to the BEST surprise ever.
{if you know me you know that i LOVE taking a bath}
my boy KNOWS me.
I walked into this goodness.
I was blown away.



"Take as long as you want! It's your time to relax. Don't worry about me I'll go clean up"
IS THIS REAL LIFE?
I've been wanting to take a bath in that claw foot tub forever now.
How he remembered that, i don't know.
the only thing missing was him.
but i did what he told me to do.....
Then I got into my comfortable clothes
we watched a movie he had set up in the theatre room.
and we kissed until the cows came home.
it.was.perfect.
I LOVE ERIC GAVIN WRIGHT.
i am the luckiest girl.
