"Our" Weekend!

Daniel and I had such a nice weekend! We dropped our boys at grandma and grandpa's house and headed north. Not really a sunny destination but when shopping is involved I am pretty content!

*smile*

First we stopped at Cabela's

and the huge Fleet Farm store!

Exciting! I know!

But actually then have neat stuff!
Then we drove on up to Minneapolis!
Look at the view out our hotel window!
Isn't it beautiful!?

Okay so it was a gray day!
And the parking lots are ugly.
And would you believe
we didn't even go into the Mall of America?!?!

I was just pumped to go HERE!

It was Daniel's first visit!
It was special!!
Look at the lines just going in as they opened on Saturday!

Daniel did find fun stuff!

how cute is that!?

as we were leaving I made him go in the men's restroom to see these crazy hand dryers:

Bizarre! But they work!
Just stick your hands in and the BLAST
your hands with air!

This is Daniel enjoying his anniversary present...
it is the same every year.
Christmas and birthday too.
Twizzlers.

How about this fun Chips Ahoy truck:

Daniel dropped me off at the OUTLET MALL
that was already awesome
and having huge sales to boot!!!
While he went back to Cabela's!
We ate out. At Famous Dave's next to Cabela's.
Here are the beans I told Daniel he COULDN'T EAT!
Lucky for me
he was too full
after his "TExas Manhandler" sandwich!

I had the "everything bad for you sampler"!
It's not really called that, but it might as well be!
I only ate the three ribs,
the three chicken strips
and the three skinny pieces of catfish.
Wow, was it good!

Here is why
you shouldn't take pictures
of people while they are eating.

On the way home I was wishing I had taken more pictures.
So I started playing with night pics!

These look like squirrels, no?

When we got home Jedd showered us with confetti!

Each piece had a heart drawn on it!
Over 100 of them!

I {heart} that boy!
And missed them both.


Good to be home.

Good to be so happily married!

15 years ago!!!!

I married a boy that became God's gift to me!

Yesterday marked 15 years together!
YIKES!
Can that be?!?!?

I HAVE to share the boys cards they made for me while I was at work last night:

From Russ-

The is a cross between a cat and a lizards.
"Mimi" is what the boys call me lately....long story.
And it has a "talky bubble" that says "Roar!"

How funny is that! It has legs and a pointy tail!

This is my

anniversary HAT from Jedd.
And then this hilarious card:

Dear Mimi, I love you and I know you will be kissing daddy a lot.
You know I love you very, very, very much!!!!!!!!!! I love you.
Sinserly,
Your son Jedd

Look at the top it says "love birds" and shows us kissing and the boys standing there covering their eyes!
tooo tooo funny!
You can click on these to see them closer.
Enjoy!
I got a card from Daniel too.
Yall don't get to see that.
