Sorry I haven't blogged in like 3 weeks! But SO much has happened :)

Ok, the weekend of my birthday started out with a girl's night with Heather :) We went to the Sportsman's Bar, had some delicious food (and drinks!), and then realized it was TRIVIA NIGHT!!!
 Our team was the Nancy Drewers. And we got second to last place… :)
This is my birthday present from Heather. She got it from my favorites on etsy :) I LOVE IT!
 My sister got me this cute little necklace from my favorites on etsy too :) She also made me some homemade caramels and gave me some apples. They're AWESOME!!!
 Tim and I went to Grand Rapids to go mainly to Plato's Closet. I didn't find much there, which was disappointing, but we did go to Krispy Kreme :) I was just going to get one donut, but Tim suggested we get a dozen. I willingly agreed lol :)
 Bavarian cream, lemon, pumpkin spice, blueberry, chocolate, cinnamon roll, and regular. Yummy!
 We then took a random picture with the gourds at Meijer...
 On my birthday, Tim said he'd be making dinner and cake! And um, no that is not a spatula, it's a pie cutter/pickerupper lol. He rarely cooks. 
 Yummy, red velvet cake with vanilla frosting. I had wanted german chocolate cake with frosting, but Tim kept saying how he wanted to write on the cake, so I got red velvet. Still good :)
 Making the one AWESOME dish he knows how-tortillini with cherry tomatoes and spinach.
 SO GOOD! Don't mind the just showered, no makeup look. Tim said I should take a shower since I just worked out and looked like crap lol.
 THIS IS WHY!!! Tim covered my eyes, led me into the kitchen where the cake was lit, and when I opened my eyes, he was down on one knee :) It was so nice. We ate so many candles LOL! I was COMPLETELY surprised and started crying, as I was perfectly content with him just making me dinner/cake for my birthday, unaware that he had other plans :) Tim had originally planned on having a friend come pick me up and us drive around a little bit, ending up at a place where he would come riding up on a horse (like my knight in shining armor), get off the horse and propose :) AND THEN IT RAINED…ALL WEEKEND! :( I still love the cake though-and his handwriting :)
 Since it's just us two, we sometimes drink out of containers rather than getting cups. I know normally guys only do this, but it's SO MUCH easier than getting a cup dirty lol :)
I always thought I'd want something vintage, not realizing that this is me. Simple but SUPER sparkly :) I love it. I can't wait to see it with the wedding band :)

I did my own nails because I'm cheap that way. Oh my gosh, it's hard making an upside-down heart lol!
