Big eats and big surprises

This past week was one for the books. Last weekend (the 23rd) Waiaka and I went out to dinner with our friends, Kimball and Dustin. We went to Big Juds which a local hamburger place. I had been there a few times, but Waiaka had never been. Kimball and Dustin hooked us up with some coupons too, which is always nice. We decided to get the Double Big Jud special which is a huge burger with two 1-pound patties. Needless to say, Waiaka was in heaven. It came with ice cream cones too, which was probably my favorite part. Big Juds is now one of Waiaka's favorite places to eat. There's honestly nothing better than enjoying great food with great company!

On the not so bright side of things, I got majorly sick this week. Okay, so I might be a little dramatic. I got a pretty bad cold. Luckily it only lasted a few days, but it really slowed me down. On Friday night (which is always date night), Waiaka convinced me to get ready so we could go out. He said he had the whole night already planned out. I love going on dates that are pre-planned, so I got ready and we headed out. Once we exited the highway, he had me recline my seat and close my eyes so I wouldn't know where we were going. He parked the car and I sat up to see that we were at Texas Roadhouse! It is one of our favorite restaurants and it is also where we had our first date.

So we are sitting at our table and I am looking over the menu, chatting with Waiaka. I finally get my eyes off the menu to see a ring box sitting on the table. I open it to see the wedding band that matches my engagement ring! I was so surprised and so happy to have it! We didn't have enough money at the time of the wedding to get my wedding band but, we got some extra money from the school this year which allowed us to order it a few months ago. My ring was already gorgeous, but this really makes it look amazing. Waiaka is so thoughtful and knows I like surprises (even though I try to figure them out sometimes) and did a great job at making our date special.

That wraps up August! Time sure does fly when you're married to the man of your dreams. We are looking forward to September with my parents visiting, school starting up, and many more fun date nights and stories to tell.
