oh what a night :)


My man is soooo sweet!
We had decided that since we got the washer and dryer for each other as our anniversary gift that we wouldn't make any other special plans.

The only thing we were going to do was get each other one small gift made of "paper." The traditional one year gift :)
I got Adam a year's subscription to PC Gamer magazine (his favorite) and he got me some stationary (my favorite).
It was perfect!
Then he precedes to tell me that he booked us a hotel room at the famous Moonrise Hotel, in Delmar, for the night :)
This hotel is amazing. It is totally mod and posh and everyone was beyond amazing!

Here are some shots of our room


we had an amazing view of the U-City Loop from our bed :)

We had the most amazing dinner and breakfast at the Eclipse, complete with moon pies :)
Then, this morning we went to Pin-up bowl and did a round of bowling.

After bowling we headed to Jilly's Cupcake Bar and picked up three amazing cupcakes (just in case the top layer of our wedding cake was nasty after being in the freezer for a year) :D
And speaking of the cake, it was amazing...

it tasted just like it did the night of our reception! Big thanks to my mom for freezing it perfectly and remembering it today :)
Now we are home and relaxing and counting our blessings :)
Tonight is the last night to enter my 400 followers giveaway!! If you haven't entered it yet, now is your chance!!! I will be drawing a winner tomorrow! I can't wait. This giveaway is insane!!
Ok, I love you all so much!
Thank you so much for all of the amazing anniversary wishes.
AND only 4 more days until I get to see my Blog friends!!!! Eeeek!
AND we are painting over the yellow bathroom and have decided on a pink bathroom now :) Which was totally Adam's idea by the way!!
Ha!
Ok, Im out.
