A Great Anniversary!

To start off, we had a fantastic social over at Ed and Sallie's. The kids had fun after all of the adults went inside. We walked back out to find a fire approx. 20 feet tall! The kids had piled wood on top of the dwindling fire which caused an enormous one! Graisi and Blake broke up after 5 years! It seems, Blake didn't want to get married so Graisi cut him loose. It was bitter-sweet, but probably for the best. But both seems to be dealing with the break-up pretty well. Blake got drunk on hot chocolate. I think the final count was 6 cups. He was hysterically "high" on caffeine! Poor Jaime and Chad... I wonder what time they finally got him in bed? Thank you Ed and Sallie for always opening your home for everyone to gather!

Saturday afternoon, I also picked up our bootleg Wii from the back of Winn-Dixie parking lot from a guy named Poochie. It's really not as bad as it sounds... "Poochie" is my friend LaDonna's brother. His name is really Delbert, but he goes by Poochie. For the life of me I could not call him Poochie! However, while waiting, Graisi called out the window, "Yo Pooch!" REAL loud!

Sunday we went to church and back home to clean for Uncle Chris and Aunt Stacey's arrival. They volunteered for babysitting duty while we celebrated our anniversary. It's really nice to have a good meal by yourself not having to feed or tend to a little one. Surprisingly, we talked the whole time. Martin and I still have a lot to talk about and I pray it always stays that way.
After dinner, we drove by two movie theaters, but there wasn't anything worth spending $25 to watch. So, we ventured to the local Books-A-Millon and checked out the latest children's books. Now isn't that romantic?! We were back home by 8:30pm to play the new Wii with Graisi, Chris and Stacey. We had a really good day!

Monday morning we got up and drove to Anniston to the Anniston Museum of Natural History. I've been really wanting to see the "Sue" T-Rex exhibit. It was even better than I had hoped. For those of you in the Birmingham area, I would seriously recommend the museum as a whole. It was very nice. Then back home for an evening for outside play and talking to the neighbors.

What more could you ask for?
