7 Years today...

(This is one of the first photos that we ever had together...
its still one of my favourites!)

7 years ago today:

I was running through to my parents bedroom shouting...
'Mum... Mum, I think Thomas just asked me out!!'
(by a text message I should add)

I never imagined we would still be together now
loving each other more and more everyday!

Dear Boyfriend...

Everything will be ok, don't worry. I love you

p.s. Thank you for letting me bully you into taking this photo - its my fave

*There will be more Wales photos tomorrow, I promise. A sore ankle (too much walking in the Wales) mixed with some bad job related news (bah) for Boyfriend has left us feeling a bit low so just a short post today.

p.p.s. Update 2019 - he’s my husband now :)

Weekend Love...

I love love love unplanned weekends - they are always the most relaxing and fun. There are no worries about where you are meant to be when or who you are meant to be with. Just Me, Boyfriend and whatever we want to do.

Whatever we wanted this weekend seemed to involve lots of yummy food and drinks - which isn't really a surprise. On Friday night we went for Tapas and cocktails with friends where we shared so much delicious food.

On Saturday we went for a pub lunch - I had risotto, which I am obsessed with at the moment and Boyfriend had a Ploughman's platter.

All of the food was amazing and the condiments were delightful especially the onion marmalade - I think I'm going to have to try making some. I especially loved the wallpaper and the old men playing cards with their pints!

p.s. please ignore my fascination with our feet everywhere we go :)
