I totally forgot our 5 year anniversary. OMG. Josh completely, completely busted me last night! Well, technically it is today, but he came in last night being all nice and sweet (clue #1 I was about to get slammed) and then asked if I wanted him to make reservations for a nice dinner (#2). I kinda feel bad! How could this have happened?
Oh, well. We are going on a vacation later this summer with some friends, and we upgraded our room (to the swim-up beachfront suite with service! Yay!) in honor of our anniversary. I guess I just filed it away as "done." I'm sure he'll forgive me, luckily we're pretty low key about stuff like this, so it's certainly not going to cause any dramatic episodes :) I always cringe when I hear stories of people going crazy because someone forgot their 6 month anniversary or ridiculous things like that. Thankfully neither of us operates that way. Actually, I think he's glad to be honest. There were no high expectations to be met.
The night we got engaged in Key West:
In other news, I am starting a new job soon! I am really jazzed and excited. I'm sad not to spend so much time with the kids, but really, I am just not satisfied at present. I need to be doing more, making something else happen for myself. That's not to say don't savor every second with my kids, but I think that's because it has always been my plan to stay home for X amount of time and then get to work.
AND - we are getting our new countertops over the course of today. Which is why I am holed up with the kids in Ella's room watching Nemo for possibly the 1000th time and bumming around on my macbook. Love it! Although I am ready for it to be finished. I can't wait to see what the stone actually looks like - Josh and I spent an hour at their shop pouring over all the options and carefully choosing one, and then when they came out to the house to make a template of the kitchen, I spotted a corner of a slab leftover in his truck and changed the order on the spot. So we shall see. Hopefully I wasn't suffering hysteria after running around with Ella on her big girl bike in the Texas heat.
They finished pulling the old ones out, so now I'm left with this, waiting for the OTHER crew to come and install. At least it gave me time to sweep out under the stove! Although I did have to complain that they brought the wrong sink to install. Stink!
Our demolished kitchen! (It's really not that bad)
