8 month anniversary!

being the children of our parents, we're always looking for a reason to party. 

8th month anniversaries SO count.

i woke up this morning to breakfast in bed & a secret surprise (i'll let nick post about it, because i think he wants to. guys! my husband wants to blog! eep!)

then we went antique store hunting, 

shopped at Paradise Palm for some plants

& i picked a cute cactus named Phileep while nick picked a venus fly trap named Rodriguez.

i was dying from hunger so i begged nick to take me to Bruges Waffles & Frites

and he did!

ah. if you haven't been there, all i can say is WOW.

that stuff is amazing. we ate almost 3 hours ago and i still feel like i'm going to barf. in a good way. like, tasty barf. okay maybe not. but you get it. 

i had what's called the "waffle monster" which is a vanilla belgium waffle with a super good speculoos spread topped with vanilla bean ice cream and strawberries. YUM.

nick got the "machine gun" which is sausage & fries on a baguette with saucy goodness.

you must go. that is an order.
