Another week flew by! We are now at 7 weeks to go until our special day!
Cain is at Drill this weekend so I am trying to get as much done as I can! I know that the next couple weeks are going to be extremely busy so the things I can get done in the weekend leaves little time for any relaxing. Here is a look into what all went down this past week...
This picture sups up what Graci loves most about my house haha. Just chilling on the van sits that are in our kitchen right now!
So I've had this surprise up my sleeve for quite some time but had to keep it on the down low that way Cain didn't know what was going on! Cain has been wanting to get his bike new tires, breaks and a tune up since the end of riding season last year! I told him we would start saving up for it and once we had the money we could take it in to the shop! Well I lead him on to think we didn't have the money saved yet when I actually had the money saved for quite some time!! I called the shop and set up a day to take the bike in without Cain knowing! He kept bringing up the bike though and I knew how bad he wanted to get it fixed. So I told him to just call the shop and get a day set to bring in the bike and we would take money out of savings to get it fixed!
Before he called the shop I called and let the lady know what was going on and that he would be calling and to make a fake appointment! He called and set up the appointment and it wasn't until another 3 weeks from now! Little did he know he would have the bike in just a few days :)
Thanks to my dad we loaded up the bike without Cain's help! I was little nervous about that part but it all went smoothly! This was on Monday, I will talk about Cain getting the surprise here in a minute :)
Nova is really enjoying the warm weather we have been blessed with lately! This is a normal drive with her. And don't worry... I can lock my windows... she won't get chocked!
On Wednesday Cain had the honor to be apart of a Military viewing. A man in his Unit passed away over the weekend and Cain was asked to take part by standing at the head of the casket. Of course Cain was honored to do so. That morning before he had to leave I went over to the apartment and made him breakfast and mastered my lint rolling skills. As an soon to be Army wife it's a must know how! No spots, lose strings, dust or nova hair allowed on the uniform!
I took this before he needed to walk out. We have the American flag behind our couch inside the apartment. It was perfect for this shot!
Saying our goodbyes! Telling him before leaving how handsome he is :)
Seeing how I will be moving out in a month I have been going through all my things in the house. I found these while doing so... I was/am a HUGE LOST fan! HUGE.
She likes nothing more then to lay on my lap while I drive.
Or on Graci's sit.
Thursday was a GREAT DAY! First off I got a call that my ring was back!!! Without telling Cain I went ahead and got it without him. Once I was with him I said "Guess who put a ring on it" He took a couple guesses and I said nope to all... then he started asking more questions trying to guess who got engaged. I said "I didn't say anything about getting engaged... just put a ring on it" Finally after another couple tries he yelled "YOUR RING!" We both laughed and were pretty excited about the whole thing! I love my ring and happy it's back on my finger!
Also on Thursday I was taking Cain to get his bike! I met him at the apartment and he was outside waiting for me. I said "Get in the car!" I saw that he had shorts on so I ran inside without him and put his jeans in a bag so he wouldn't see. I took off to the shop where the bike was at. He had no clue where the shop was so it worked out good. But I got so excited before getting there I made him close his eyes!
Once we pulled in I made him keep his eyes closed and got him out of the car. I ran to the trunk of the car where I had his helmet and then handed it to him with his eyes still closed. He knew right away what was going on. He was shocked though! And I think it's funny that he said "How?" How was I able to do that. I laughed and was like "Babe, it's me. You're still asking "HOW?"?
Once home I got my first ride of the year! Loved it too :) My bike jacket came in the mail that night too so it all worked out perfectly!
I love that Cain has this bike for a lot of reasons. It's something he loves to do. And it saves money on gas. But it's something we love to do together. It's a past time for us. We love driving on country roads and spending that time together. I loved that I was able to save the money for it to get fixed so we could enjoy it this summer.
I never would have thought I would be riding on the back of a sports bike but I love it. I'm with Cain, why wouldn't I love it?! Anything with him is fun.
Now that the weekend is about over I will get to see Cain and we will be able to spend sometime together and get to ride the bike again this week. Unless it snows... which I heard might happen! Boo.
