Girl Gets Fancy

So this past weekend Josh and I had a date night planned... well... He had a date night planned... all the info I got was that I needed to dress up and that he was planning on wearing a button down and slacks, sans tie.... and when he was picking me up. I did know that we were going some where in Portland, as he said he was taking the car instead of the truck. So I thought about outfits all week, figuring that on Saturday I would just grab something out of my closet. Of course I ransacked my room in the process but finally decided on my classic black dress. Not surprisingly Josh arrived 5 minutes early... wearing a TIE! My first thought was that sneaky liar, but then I actually looked at him... and I couldn't help but think, wow, I am one lucky girl.

We ended up at Portland City Grill and while it was crowded and took some time for us to find seats, the drinks and food were great and the view was amazing and that was just sitting at the bar. I have never been to a restaurant that fancy before, so it was quite a treat! We walked back to the car, though neither of us paid attention to what level we had parked on, so it took us a little bit of walking to find the car. We changed clothes and headed back down to the street. We walked and walked until I finally looked up and realized that we were at Harvey's Comedy Club.

It was a great night and I couldn't have asked for a better "Birthday" celebration.

Crazy Redneck

I haven't felt the need to blog lately. I suppose that's not a bad thing. When things start with a simple, I'm gonna go see a movie, would you like to join me.... One might not know what to think. When that first meeting is followed by too long standing in the cold talking... one still might not know what to think. How about coffee... closing down the coffee shop... Then... that absolutely surprising "3rd date" This crazy amazing man shows up at my door with roses and a fidget spinner. Yes, you read that right, a fidget spinner. He had noticed how much I tend to fidget my hands while talking. I personally think it was pretty awesome. He listens with such an intensity that I am astounded repeatedly. We went to TopGolf that night and had a blast. My favorite is the random pictures or texts. They often leave me laughing at just the right time. Things... things are good.
