Family Celebration

Our five year anniversary rolled around...and as life goes sometimes a nice peaceful date night out and alone was just not on the agenda. A nursing baby and short on babysitters led to a family day and night of fun! We went to the mall and visited the pet shop for Andrew and looked at some wedding bands at the jewelry store. After naps and I don't know what else (sometimes I have no idea what goes on in my life in one day, but somehow it is always busy and times goes by too fast).....anyhow - we went to B.J's Restaurant for late dinner. It was a little crowded and there was a bit of a wait time, but after I got over being grumpy (I really was not in a happy mood) we had a lot of fun. It was a semi loud place so it was not bad to have the kids there.

Andrew was happy to be out of the house and had fun making everyone around us smile. I may be the only girl in this family as of yet, but I love these boys!!!!!!!

Carter fell asleep during dinner so I ate one handed, one of the many talents of a mother. I got a salad which was okay...but I should have gone the route of Bry. He got a burger and gave me a bite and it was SOOO good!!! Next time I will order something a little more tastey and save room for a Pazookie!!!

The fifth anniversary gift apparently is supposed to be something of wood. Bry got me a new basket to keep all the diapering needs in for the front room (very thoughtful - I was impressed) and I got him some pictures (in a wood frame) for him to take to work to put on his desk. He brought me some beautiful flowers and a gift card for a 1 1/2 hour massage!!! He made sure this one was not going to go out of business. All in all - we had a wonderful day. I realized I don't need a fancy dinner and expensive gifts to be happy...I just love having my husband home and spending time with my family.
