This weekend we celebrated Floyd and Vernitta's 40th wedding anniversary. It was a great event and everything went smoothly! Roughly 100 people attended the party which was awesome for my in-laws. They are such a great example of "good" marriage and definitely one for Bradley and I to strive to live up to! Somedays I doubt we'll ever make it to 40 years but let's hope for the best. Today we went down to Red Bud to attend church with F & V and then to Keith and Leslie's to open gifts and spend time as a family. Then we had to go to a visitation this evening for Bradley's godmothers father. Needless to say when we got home tonight the kids were ready to crash! Lauren was so tired she could hardly stand it. Blake was overly tired and fighting going to bed but I finally got him down. Now let's hope he sleeps in past 5:30 am! I'm not such a fan of 5:30!
While visiting Keith and Leslie today we went to Keith's firehouse. Lauren got to climb on a big rig and thought it was great! She even wore uncle Keith's coat but was a little scared to put on his hat. Blake got in on the action too.
As an anniversary present we gave F & V a trip to Chicago this summer. We're going to travel up on Amtrak and spend the weekend downtown. They've never been downtown so it should be fun! I'm definitely looking forward to taking Lauren to the American Girl store too! Floyd and Vernitta will celebrate their anniversary on their own with a cruise to Alaska in a little over a week.
This week will be a crazy one again with Lauren finishing up story time at the library and preschool. She has a preschool program on Thursday night. Hopefully she won't be scared this time like she was for the Christmas program. We'll see though! I can't wait for our DirecTV to get fixed! It got hit by lighting Friday night and so we are without TV until Tuesday! Ahhh! I actually don't watch much TV but I like to be able to catch the forecast and the news in the morning and now I'm lost.....Thanks goodness the internet works!
