On the Friday I picked her up, I had college so it wasn't a day where we could do a lot because of the lateness when we got home so it was another night in with fajitas for us :) we love fajitas! (There is a lesbian joke in there but I will let you work that out for yourselves :))
14th December, Saturday
This is where the fun properly started. I had seen on Facebook that the Mailbox in Birmingham was showing films for free so obviously we had to go and see one. Plus with watching the film we got mulled wine and mince pies for free, who can turn down freebies?
The movie was Love Actually, and I honestly had never felt so happy or laughable whilst watching that film. Maybe it was because it was in a sort of outside cinema or maybe it was because I was with my girl, but either way it was amazing!
From Love Actually, we went to Sinderfella. Sinderfella is a touring adult panto, that toured London, Birmingham and Manchester. We had planned to go on the 16th for my birthday but it wasn't running on that date plus as we had time to kill it was easiest to go that day. Unfortunely when we went at 4pm for the matinee there was about three people and the atmosphere wouldn't have really been there so the director asked us if we could come back later. Of course we didn't mind, it meant we could get food so that meant.... On ward to the loft lounge!
Then after lots of thinking and talking we headed back to Sinderfella... Which turned out to be well and truly amazing. From the moment we walked in, we were giggling and welcomed. Whether that was because of the drunken women who were sitting next to us or not we had an amazing time. The cast were amazing, both dealing with the raucous crowd and entertaining the ones who were enjoying the performance.
The only problem we had after seeing the show was getting home.
Then when we finally got home the fun started, as if my mind hadn't have been going crazy whilst we were out it went into overdrive when we got in.
Keep your minds out of the gutter for the next bit...
We sat on the bed.
I began to shake.
I asked her to get my bag from the other side of the room.
She went to get it for me.
I kissed her then blindfolded her.
After speaking some words to her I kissed her again.
I held her hand, and placed a box in her hand.
Took the blindfold off and didn't let her look down.
Kissed her again and asked her to marry me.
As I asked her, suspicious minds came on strictly, excuse me whilst I remember the smallest detail...
But she said yes.
15th December, Sunday
On Sunday we didn't do anything, it was more of a family day.
16th December, Monday
MY BIRTHDAY!!!
As it was my birthday this meant we were heading out to get freebies, after I had opened my gifts. First stop for us was Starbucks - as usual! As we were walking through my hometown someone was giving out free chocolate, so that was my first freebie of my birthday. After a Stabucks and free chocolate bar, we headed to Birmingham for freebies! Yay to free things. It started with a Krispy Kreme and then a Ed's easy diner milkshake. As well as the free things, we went shopping in the Bullring and on the German market!
19th December, Thursday
This was Thursday was a very important Thursday for us. It was our year anniversary and I took the next few days off college to spend with her. I had planned a day at a spa as well as a meal for us to celebrate!
We got up, I opened my gifts and then we hit the shower before going to Moor Hall in Sutton.
Now I'm going to hand over the rest of this day to my fiancé, as I want her to tell you exactly what she thought of everything.
We set off in the car and I was still oblivious as to where I was being taken, I sat looking out of the window for clues and road signs but I had no idea until we pulled up outside a lovely old looking building and read the sign above the entrance the I clicked on, and the excitement and nerves kicked in! I'd never been on a spa day or been a guest in this type of place I'd only ever worked in them so being on the other side of the tables was is strange but felt great. We checked in and were taken to the bar where we were given complimentary tea before we were given a little tour of the spa and shown where all our facilities were.
We headed to the pool for a relaxing swim, I couldn't stop smiling at the fact I'd been brought somewhere so lovely and spoilt, I knew the rest of the day was going to be amazing.
After a while in the pool we dried off and went to sit in the 'quiet room' before we had our treatments, it was a beautiful little room, relaxing colours and atmosphere.
After the massage we went back down to the bar and had a drink before we went for our meal.
Our meal was lovely, we had range of little starters, Kim had a lovely looking potato and leek soup, this was followed by a lovely carvery that very nearly filled us to the brim but we forced room for desert, I had a slice of lemon cake, safe to say there really wasn't as much room as I thought left, Kim had a tasty looking slice of chocolate fudge cake, she also was more full than she realised but we both enjoyed the meal and went away feeling like 2 stuffed pumpkins!
We headed home both smiling after what was an amazing day, the best anniversary gift I could've imagined, I really don't know how I'm going to top this one!! It was truly amazing.
And now back to me....
I knew what I had planned so I had high expectations, but this surely surpassed them!
20th December, Friday
Due to the spa day before I had to make sure that the plans for today were for today and no earlier. So today I booked us both in for a tattoo, then as we were in for most we didn't do much for the rest of the day.
My tattoo ^
Her tattoo ^
