I realized that I didn't write about me and Mike's celebrations for our anniversary and for Valentine's Day. For our anniversary dinner, we went to the restaurant at Inn on the Creek in Midway, which is where we had our first dinner as a married couple. We reminisced on the way up about our wedding day and how wonderful it was. Our romantic anniversary dinner was on Valentine's Day (because the 15th was a Sunday), so I suppose it was our Valentine's celebration, as well. I don't know. It doesn't matter, because it was pretty much just a weekend of love. On Monday (President's Day) we had a homemade romantic dinner- filet mignon, broiled asparagus, and mashed potatoes. And crème brulée for dessert. It was delicious. Mike also got me a very awesome valentine/anniversary gift- Flight of the Conchords' first season on DVD, as well as their soundtrack. It 's so great. I'm a little bit proud of what I got him, too- a bb gun. It's come in handy so far- he uses it to scare cats off our property (not kill them).
So that all was two weeks ago. Last weekend was the baby shower that my in-laws threw for me. It was lovely. I wish I had pictures of it, but I also wish I had pictures of anything, and it's no one's fault but my own. I'm going to go take a picture right now of all the stuff I got there, because it's all so adorable and cute and soft. Oh boy, do I ever love soft baby things. Also, I would definitely recommend the sugar cookies from Smart Cookie- they use cream cheese frosting and are fantastic (thanks, Kati!). Mom J and I had also gone fabric shopping the week before to pick out stuff for a baby quilt, which we tied at the shower and which I love. I've always loved fabric stores, since I was little and would go with my mom, and picking out fabric for this project was so so fun. I can't wait until the day I learn to quilt (perhaps as soon as this fall!). Anyway, thanks to everyone for making it such a lovely evening- it was wonderful seeing you all (especially Kerry and Becca- they were both in town for Ann's birthday). Anyway, hooray for babies and showers and another one this weekend!
Uhg, I can't find the camera-to-computer cord. Next time, pictures.
