I was lucky to be able to visit Andrew over President's Day weekend. IT WAS WONDERFUL! I went to the airport after my class and flew through the night, it was worth it!
Andrew was there to pick me up around 8:30 am in Pensacola. Luckily Andrew and a friend picked up our new bed the night before and Andrew put it all together so the first thing we did when I got there was take a much needed nap!
Andrew displaying his putting-together manly skills! Once we finally move all our stuff to Florida next month this will move to the guest room (for those of you who come to visit-- it is VERY COMFY!)
Once we finally got ready for the day we went and re-signed our lease until September 2012. We really like where we live and they gave us a killer deal!
After all the business was taken care of we went to Pensacola to MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT- Mellow Mushroom for a late Valentines Dinner. We both ordered our favs (Andrew: Pineapple and Pepperoni, Meghan: Tempeh, Broccoli, and Onions with Vegan Cheese) and went to a hockey game!
The hockey game was really fun (as always) we saw a few fights and the between period activity was "Wiener dog races!"
It was pretty funny and cute! After the race was over the dogs and their owners just hung out on the ice for a while and played. You could tell the dogs were having a BLAST!
Sunday was church and relaxing. Andrew had meetings before and after church but I just waited on him. We had our leftover pizza (YUM!) and fed the ducks at the duck pond behind our building. It wasn't as much fun without out little cute Chloe barking her head off at them!
Monday we went to the beach....it was BEAUTIFUL! It was nice to have to put on sunscreen in February. February, people! We just soaked up the sun and I read a book...FOR FUN....it was SO GREAT to read a book that had nothing to do with school, class, or my thesis. Granted, I read a book about personal finance, but still. It's what I'm into nowadays. We both are VERY excited for the summer when we can go to the beach after work and just relax (I mean, how couldn't you...)
Sadly, Andrew had to take me back to the airport Monday night but not before we ate at Panera (another of our favorites!)
It felt heavenly to be with my husband it made us realize that while we know the time apart is the best for a careers, being together is SO MUCH BETTER than being apart! April 16th can't come soon enough!
OH and PS this is what I came back to, ugh.
