Au revoir

Before I leave for my vacations, Brian always sets aside the day for a date day. It is a great way to not only enjoy each other's company one last time before I take off, but to also enjoy our city. Before my trip to Brazil a few years ago, Brian surprised me with a helicopter ride high above Manhattan as my farewell to the city before my month away. I still think about that amazing day all the time; it was such a great surprise!

For our date day before my time in Minnesota this week, we decided to stay local in Astoria. After debating over several of our favorite neighborhood restaurants, I picked Five Napkin Burger. I just can't resist their wings, burgers, and shakes. Yum!

After almost six years, there is still no one else I would want across the table from me. I still look forward to each and every date with my man, who can always make me laugh.

I wore my new vintage rose earrings that I found at a little boutique during our day in Portland. I love getting souvenirs like this; every time I wear them I will think of the fun we had together in Maine.

After our late lunch, we spent the evening lounging at home and watching a movie (Inception). It was a great day. I can't wait for more dates once I return to New York City!
