Lots and Lots to share!!

Well, first of all, I forgot to take a picture of my awesome box that I got from Jenny!!! We participated in a Valentine's blog swap with Kaite at Loves of Life! It was the cutest thing ever! Since I am aweful and didn't take a picture, I will tell you what all was in it....LOTS of chocolate (which I LOVE) a HUGE thing of Whoppers (my favorite) the cutest card EVER (very funny)!! Some hair stuff, lip gloss and lotion from VS (my favorite) and even a cute little toy for Scout from his new friend Mr. Bondi! It was the best thing ever! Thanks Jenny!! Everything was wonderful! You are the BEST!!

Now on to my weekend....again, sorry I have no pictures! Maybe if someone reads this, they can send me the ones they have *hint, hint..E*. Anyway, my weekend started off last Tuesday night when C and I went to Birmingham to see John Mayer (this was before hos racy comments) and we actually had a BLAST! The concert was great and we had so much fun!! E met us in Birmingham on Wednesday and he and I headed for the beach! We went to Orange Beach! Even though it was chilly, it was still really pretty! I mean who doesn't like waking up to the ocean everyday! We went down to celebrate E's birthday on Thursday, but little did I know, so much more was planned! E and I are both big cooks so we decided we would cook more than go out to eat, so on his birthday, we cooked the BEST shrimp dish EVER! I made him a Key Lime Cheesecake for his birthday before we went. Anyway...we cooked dinner and were sitting around enjoying each other and wine when he asked for some cheesecake! He mentioned that he as going to go change clothes and get comfortable if I would fix the cheesecake. He came back to the kitchen a few minutes later and handed me a present. I probably looked at him funny and he said, I got you something for MY birthday! I thought that was odd, but opened it anyway. It looked and felt like a book, so I assumed that is what it was. But I opened it to a book that had two sides. One side was a picture of a beautiful ring and the other side were the words..."Will you marry me?" I was shocked at this point, looked to see that E was on one knee with a ring in his hand. I think I said, "Is this for real?" and He asked me if I would marry him, I said yes! That is how he wanted to celebrate his birthday!! Isn't that sweet?!

We enjoyed the rest of the weekend in newly engaged bliss! The made our rounds Sunday to the parents. We got snowed in Monday and today and I drove back home today! We are SO excited! Maybe I will have pictures for you soon!!

Hope you all have a GREAT TUESDAY!! Happy FAT TUESDAY! Laissez les bon temps roulez!
