flying planes


for our monthiversary earlier this week, eric planned something special and i wasn't allowed to know what it was. he came over to pick me up from my co-op and telling me i just needed my water bottle and a blanket.

we drove down to zilker park and parked in the parking lot. then he opened the trunk of the car to reveal a picnic basket and a couple of remote control airplanes! we headed out to the middle of the field, set our stuff down and got out the planes. we flew them until the wind was too strong and then decided to start the picnic. we're mid-meal (pb & j's anyone?) and a woman walks by and comments about how there is a lot of lightning coming. a few minutes later it started to sprinkle so we packed everything back up and drove to another part of the park where we could sit on picnic tables in a pavilion. shortly after that it started to pour.

fortunately eric had brought our adventure book with him so we sat in the pavilion catching up on our adventure book entries until it got dark enough that it was difficult to see what we we were drawing. it was an awesome monthiversary.

otherwise, things have been crazy with school and life. i was able to collect all but one of the subjects i needed by the end of last week. two weekends ago was chris and julia's wedding (it was incredible!) and last weekend i met my mom in utah to go wedding dress shopping. i found a dress...its perfect! now we're on to invitations. i also just got approved for an apartment so i'm moving at the end of this month...which means now i get to outfit an apartment too!
