This past Friday, I was finally able to see my boyfriend Jake after three long weeks! I know three weeks doesn't seem that long for long-distance couples, but I sure did miss him!
Usually when Jake and I visit, we try to switch off driving to each other's houses, just to make it easier on one another. Since he came to me for our one year anniversary over Easter, I went to see him this time! The driving doesn't bother me at all, just because I know he'll be there to greet me when I arrive!
That morning, I woke around 7:30am to start getting ready. Even though it was early, I was so excited to see Jake, it didn't even matter! I had picked out my outfit ahead of time and decided on a black blouse with ruffles (my favorite) and a pair of shorts. We weren't doing anything big that day, just relaxing and having fun, so I didn't want to dress up too much!
I got to his house around 11am and was greeted by this sweet face!
Harlee is one of my favorite things about visiting Jake's. She's the most precious dogs I've ever met and the reason for my Doodle obsession!
Then, I saw this smiling face!
He's my real favorite:)

After chatting inside for a little while, we made our way around the outside of the house, so I could see all the cool projects Jake's been working on. He's quite the handyman/carpenter! We tried out the new hammock, inspected his handmade table and everything else he's been crafting. I was very impressed!
We then had lunch with the two most entertaining members of the family, Jake's Mom & Sister. These ladies could keep me laughing for hours. I'm so glad I was able to spend some time with them. We ate at this little pizza place nearby called Brooklyn South, very tasty!

After lunch, Jake and I spent some time just hanging out and enjoying each other's company, then headed off to one of the shopping areas nearby! We stopped by Barnes & Noble, where I picked up the cute new bookmark that I tweeted about!
We love seeing movies, so we couldn't resist this opportunity to stop by the theater and see what was playing! We decided on "What to Expect When You're Expecting". Such a good choice!
I have the matching notebook that Jake picked up for me last summer in Washington, DC, so I had to have it!

Ladies, if you haven't seen it yet, you definitely should! It was cute and funny! I have to admit by the end, when everyone is having their babies, I got a little bit emotional. There I was crying in the middle of the theater! There's just something about babies being born I guess:)
We had such a great day and I can't wait to have another date day!
Happy Tuesday Everyone!
