Kyle has always been the kind of man to work a little romance into the picture, but this time he outdid himself! Just when I thought all the engagement celebrating was over, he surprised me yet again. Like I mentioned, Kyle had been interning in Conroe all summer so I thought surely he had to return home for work on Monday. Well it turns out that he had been done with his internship for weeks and we were headed to San Antonio the next day and then to a cabin he rented! I was ecstatic and looking forward to time together to digest everything that had happened the last 24 hours! Let me just say this is the only time when packing consisted of me attempting to fit every bridal magazine into the car instead of every pair of shoes I own.

That Sunday we headed to San Antonio where we did some more celebrating with my parents as the newly engaged couple. We went to our absolute favorite place for happy hour, Houlihan's and recapped the weekend and all of Kyle's planning.

Our next and last stop before heading to the cabin was a new restaurant Costa Pacifica which is OUTstanding! Kyle and I love to try new foods so when my parents said it was "different" we were on board. The best way to describe it is Mexican tapas with a twist, but they have main entrees as well. And of course we can't forget their famous mojitos, so of course I had to try the rasberry!

But enough of my foodie talk (maybe a food blog is in my future). We drove a few hours outside of San Antonio to the Montview Cabin Kyle rented for us. We love the mini cabin vacations (he took us to another one for one of our anniversaries) so I was excited to see this one! It was such a quaint cabin, but much more modern and updated than the last. Don't get me wrong, I'm definitely a city girl, but there's something about having a weekend without the distraction of e-mail, phones, tv's, etc and just having time to slow down and talk.

While I was busy roaming around the cabin and taking way too many pictures, Kyle set up a little surprise...

| Cheers! |
There really is nothing that can compare to a quiet weekend with your best friend, love of your life and of course a little old-fashioned romance!
