4/7/12: Anniversary celebrated

Today Dale & Candy watched the kids so we could celebrate our 10 year anniversary. Originally we wanted to go up to the mountains for the day but then we realized that it was still ski season and we didn't want to have to sit in a ton of traffic going to and from so we opted for a low key local date. First we headed to T@rget (yes, I know, real romantic, but hey when you've got two kids and been married 10 years, it is a treat to go shopping by ourselves :)) and I tried on some clothes and got two new tops. Yay me. :)

okay, so maybe the hubby wasn't as excited as I was about shopping :)

Then it was lunchtime so we were going to eat at Zucca downtown but then we realized that they weren't open for lunch on weekends, right around the time we got there and saw tons of fire personnel. Apparently there had been a massive grease fire at The Empire so we sat ourselves down at The Rex with a view of all the action and enjoyed a great lunch (marinated chicken, prosciutto, and brie sandwich on sourdough for me...yum!)

After lunch, we headed to the mall so I could pick up something and Dave got a Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory dessert. Then it was off to the theater to see October Baby. We wanted to support a Christian film that supports choosing life. Should have brought a box of kleenex! Then being the exciting people we are, we finished our date off with a trip to C*stco and T@rget.

After Dale & Candy left, while we raced around getting ready to leave, Callen managed to fall on his sippy cup and split his lip open in multiple places, getting blood all over himself and soaking up 5 paper towels. So after cleaning him up and a wardrobe change, we were off to a Passover Seder dinner.

Happy 10 years to me! :)

4/3/10...baby bump & anniversary...

This morning we took L to two different egg hunts (more on that later). Tonight, D & C watched L so that we could go to M@ggianos for our 8 year anniversary (it's Tuesday).

Here's the pic of us before we left. I'm almost 17 weeks here.

Monday, 4/6/09...Anniversary, sister J, D's classes...

Other updates for today include...Today's our SEVEN year anniversary. I'm SO grateful to have had seven years of marriage with my best friend. Here's to many more! My sister J is coming into town for a few days and I'm going to pick her up at the airport tonight. :) I also thought I'd take this opportunity to let you know that D's going to be super busy for the next few months. He's decided to take his thesis class early since a couple of his classmates who he was going to be doing his project with needed to do it early. So not only is he still going to class on Wed nights (& doing a couple papers & presentation for that class) but now he's meeting a couple times per week with his thesis peeps and doing work for that. He's not excited about it and I guess I'm not that much either since I know that means more work for me at home, but I'm glad that means that he'll be done with his masters at the end of May instead of the end of August (if everything goes as planned).

The only other thing that happened to me today (except doing more laundry!) is that I locked my keys in my car in the garage and I couldn't find the spare. I got the amusement of watching the AAA dude try to break into my car and finally be successful. I'm not quite sure why my car lets you lock the doors and then shut them (esp. w/the key fob inside) but it did. I had gone out the night before by myself and forgot to unlock all the doors so when i went to unlock all the doors today, apparently I hit the button one too many times, b/c when I walked around to what I thought should have been an unlocked door, it was in fact locked. :( opps! Anyhow, now we still have to find our spare key!
