Albertville - Thanks Mom!

Michael and I have been talking about taking a little trip south to do some shopping. We have been saving up money to do it, and with a little gift we got from my Mom, we decided we had enough to make the trip worth it.

The spoils from our weekend of shopping. Thanks Mom!

It looks totally ridiculous when it's all piled on the couch like that. Would you believe me if I told you our feet ached a lot after this weekend?

oh. my.

Can you tell what's wrong with this photo? It's a picture of the inside of my freezer.

Yup, you got it. EXPLODED beer bottles!

This is what you get when someone puts a couple beers in the fridge to cool them off quickly and share them with a friend...and then gets so distracted that he someone forgets about them until the next day.

That is the bottom of my freezer.

What fun!

Dan comes to visit!

Dan came to visit us, which was really exciting. When you have lived and shared your house with someone for three years, you miss them when they are gone. We were enjoying some cheese cake (I think), that we knew Jenn would be really sad about missing out on, so we pretended to feed some to her photo.

It was great to get to see Dan. Too bad Jenn couldn't come too. Next time!

5th Anniversary Getaway - nice

It's hard to believe, but Michel and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary this year. So, we decided to capitlize on the long weekend and do a little get away. We tried to find a place sort of like where we spent our wedding night & 1st anniversary (check out this place). So, we went to a place called Pinewood Lodge. Which was also very nice.

A bed with rose petals, nice.

The living space.

The weather was beautiful, even though it was the middle of November, so we went for a walk, and ended up spending a good chunk of time on this bridge throwing rocks at the frozen ice. Not the kind of thing you would expect from to married adults, but that's what we did.

It was so nice to get away and just be not at home, where we could forget about the pressures of life for a few days and totally veg out (how on earth should I be spelling that?). It was hard to come back to the real world.
