Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine

baby beach day & meet the parents

Me & Ernie took Levi to the beach last Saturday. He was so much fun, pointing to everything... "Up!" & "That!"
So adorable.

Our parents met for the first time on Sunday.
We went to Carrabba's for lunch. It was quite nice; they got along great.
We were there for over three hours so almost a little too great. Then, we went back to their house and looked at a bunch of old pictures.
T'was fun, I'm glad the ice is finally broken and we can easily get them together again!

Annnnnd I recently found this lovely piece:





I definitely want to do something like this for our STD's (Save The Dates, just to clear that up.) when that day finally arrives ;)

37.4 miles in 45 minutes

That distance seems like an eternity every time I merge onto I95.

I never thought I would end up being in a long distance relationship. And it actually being successful, for that matter.

We usually see each other once during the week and everyday over the weekend,
which works out quite nicely.
But those days where I know I won't be seeing him, waking up to that feeling sucks. Then I remember I have to get this day over with in order to see him again.

And then there's the feeling of driving up to his house, or him pulling into the driveway. You have the evening to spend together. 4...5...6... hours pass and it's time to go home. It's painful, really.
It's getting worse and worse over time.

Soon, we won't have to say goodbye anymore.

here comes summer...

I'll miss the cold :(
It almost makes me want to move up north. But I wouldn't want to leave everybody here in the Sunshine State. I'd have one XL suitcase stuffed with family & friends to come with me.

But since that is just imaginary... I'll have to deal with the Florida heat I've been dreading since the end of last summer.



It has it's ups... beach days, miss.not-so-pale-anymore... and that's about it.
I'll take scarves and boots over sunscreen any day!

The bottom line: you want what you can't have.

SPEAKING of which. I've been wanting to get my hands on the iPhone since well, ever. And I do not wish to leave my beloved Verizon.
But a little birdie told me that it will be coming in the next year! w00t
I also had a weird dream last night. Apple decided to send me an iPad. It was just dropped on my doorstep by the UPS guy.
I think this was developed from a combination with impatience for my VS bathing suit to get here + I watched a "Will it blend?" video starring the iPad right before going to bed. Lovely.

Well, there's nothing new to report. Saturday, my little sister is inviting a bunch of her friends to the beach so me & Ernest are tagging along. We're also taking little baby Levi, so we'll be beachy parents for the day. Should be fun.
Oh and I'm also taking Ernie to see Costa d'Este for the first time!! Can't wait for him to see it.



I'll be sure to take some pictures this weekend to share baby Levi's cuteness :)
