Uriah Grilling on Mother's Day!

Typical.

Smitten.

After FOUR LONG MONTHS I finally got to see my handsome, diver boyfriend! Uriah has been in Houston studying to become a Master Diver. For what we have wanted to do, we felt it was best (although MUCH harder) for me to stay in Lubbock with my family and job. It has been quite possibly the hardest and longest four months ever, and even though it's not over (he graduates in August) it feels so much more manageable. We had the best weekend! Uriah helped move his mother, Brinda, here this weekend so she will be an added bonus to this town!! Uriah, Brinda, my mom, and I all hung out Saturday morning and had lunch together. Then Uriah and I did some shopping, he got to meet one of my very best friends, Paige, for the first time and we played with the baby she was baby-sitting (see the cutest picture ever above.) Then we got ready and went on our date night to Abuelo's. He had a margarita on the rocks and I had a sangria/margarita swirl. YUM. THEN he suprised me and took me to The Funky Door - just about the coolest local winery/ fondue place where he ordered my favorite - bananas foster fondue. We were so full we could pretty much only look at it! Sunday Uriah and I went to church with my mom for Mother's day, then went grocery shopping and had a HUGE cookout for BOTH of our mothers! He bought his mom lilies and I bought my mom peonies (her favorite) and we displayed them on the table around the strawberry cake with cream cheese frosting I made. I really wish I had taken pictures of all of this. Savanna helped me decorate with some puffs and while I baked and prepped all of the sides, Uriah manned the grill with the mexican hot dogs and burgers. We have been so blessed by our mother's and wanted to show them a great time. I seriously don't think I could have asked for a better mom. She is super woman, I swear.

So... it wasn't a weekend for physical health, I'll give you that. However, my mental health was treated to an amazing weekend! 5.5 more weeks til I get to see my handsome, loving, kind man again. He loves me for me. I wasn't sure I would ever be blessed enough to feel that, but God provided, like always. So grateful.
