Last Wednesday we took the red eye from LAX to New Jersey to visit Jeff's family! They are always such short trips, and always so much to get in. Before we left, Jeff gave me my Valentine's Day present, which was a bar necklace with the coordinates of Florence on it! It's from an Etsy shop called Bip and Bop and they have THE CUTEST stuff ever! Obsessed with this "mrs" necklace also!
I absolutely love it so much and will wear it every single day. It is simple enough to wear all of the time and has such a special meaning.:) I really want to get a plan gold chain to wear with it!
Then we headed off to the airport for our midnight flight, which was delayed and caused us to miss our connecting flight from Chicago O'Hare to Newark! It was terrible. It was 5 AM CST and we were dead tired. We ended up not getting another flight for about 4 hours and finally made it to New Jersey at about 3PM as opposed to our scheduled arrival at 9:30 am that morning.
When we finally got to Jeff's parents house we saw this:
SNOW!
and this gift from Jeff's mom:
Engraved champagne flutes that say "Mrs. George" and "Mr. George" and a bottle that says "I love you" in different languages! SO cute. Anyone that knows me knows that I love anything and everything personalized and engraved! We also had a box fully of Hershey's kisses. It was the best welcome to Jersey!
Thursday and Friday nights we went out with some of Jeff's friends from high school. He rarely gets to see them, so it is always a good time. We spent most of the days lounging while I made work calls and went out in the snow on Saturday! It snowed pretty much all day on Valentine's Day, it was so pretty...but so cold. Saturday night we played "The Newlywed Game" with Jeff's sisters and their boyfriends. We didn't exactly win, but it was a great time :)
Lounging watching TV on Friday still so tired from our flight! |
It first started snowing on Saturday morning! |
Exploring in the snow |
We got back early yesterday morning and now life is back to our normal 75 degree weather!
