8 MONTHS!!!

Last Wednesday was our 8 Month Anniversary!

We are docking some serious marital time now...soon, I'm sure we'll know all there is to know about marital bliss...;)

Just kidding...we have SO much to learn, but are loving every step of our journey.

And remembering times like these, when I come home from work to this...

Jordan surprised me with my favorite things:

1. Creamy Peanut Butter...my favorite and a very very hard item to find south of the border. It was so special too because he thinks crunchy is better, but I know that creamy is the superior form of peanut buttery goodness...and he got the creamy kind anyways.
2. Flowers...I have loved having flowers here. Brazil has all kinds of gorgeous flowers blooming all the time. However, there is something special about having flowers in your room and by your door when you can't decorate otherwise. It was also perfect timing, because the next morning we woke up to find our other flowers raped by ants of unusual size and number. I will not surrender these beauties to those monsters this time!
3. Titanic. We've pretty much doubled our DVD collection while being here by purchasing two movies: Casablanca (can't believe I've waited this long to see that!) and Titanic. These are great for room dates and will be great additions to our tiny library of Pride and Prejudice, The Princess Bride, Robin Hood and Single's Second Ward. Haha....
4. Chocolate. Cookies and Cream.....enough said.
5. Candles. 8 is great candles, to say the least. Jordan mentioned that they were not only for the atmosphere, but acted as some sort of shrine for the peanut butter. :)

So we shared our plate of homemade chicken fetachini in style...in our room, away from our 7 roommates...with J's sweet surprise.

Thank-you, J.

You are the best!

Here's to many more months, years and eternities of happiness, learning and sweet surprises.
