New haircut and other adventures...

This weekend has been pretty fantastic! We slept in a bit on Saturday morning and then began to get ready for the day ahead of us. Matt started trying to figure out exactly how we would fit in everything that we had planned, and we ended up rescheduling a dinner with some friends of his for next weekend instead. I felt bad, but Matt insisted that they were ok with the change in plans. I hope he was right.






So I got my hair cut. It's pretty short now. I had been toying with the idea of cutting it for a couple of months, and I just decided to go ahead and bite the bullet. I'm soooo glad I did. It is much, much cooler without hair clinging to my neck! Plus, I think it looks cute, too. Matt agrees.

After the haircut, we drove in to Sarasota to do a little furniture shopping. Before we made it to any furniture stores, we stopped at Home Depot and picked up a Father's Day present for Matt's dad and also a vanity and mirror for our bathroom. I'm really pleased with the one we picked out, and I can't wait until we are ready to install it!

We had such a good time shopping for furniture! I halfway expected us to have completely different tastes, based on some of his decorating choices that were made long before I moved into the house. To my surprise and utter delight, we both agreed which bedroom set was perfect for us right away! We flopped around on many different mattresses, attempting to find the perfect one at the perfect price, and we were in complete agreement about that, as well.

We didn't end up purchasing any furniture yesterday, but we have agreed that we will do so within the next couple of weeks, as the mattress we've been sleeping on, well, sucks.

After we had had our fun on many, many beds, we decided it was time to "feed Seymore." We went to one of our fave spots, The Pacific Rim. We had some sashimi and maki rolls, as well as an amazing dessert! It was splendid.

We followed dinner with a movie. It was actually our first time attending a theater together. Because we were so full from dinner, I didn't get to illustrate my obsession for eating popcorn and Raisinets while at the movies. He can find that out whenever he takes me to the movies without feeding me first, ha ha. The movie we watched was "Waitress" with Keri Russell. I loved it! It is so NOT a predictable movie. While we were watching the previews, we came up with two more must-see movies, "Joshua" and "Evening."

After the movie ended, we opted to head to the beach for a walk in the moonlight. It was incredibly romantic. The beach was almost completely deserted. It was as though we were the only two people being bathed in the light of the moon and stars. All of my life, I have waited to have someone with whom I can share special moments like that one. I am so thankful for Matt.
