Catch-up

So...it's been a busy month so far...well, mostly this weekend. Dave and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary on Saturday. It was fun. We went out to La Fondue for dinner. I remember that place being a bit better than it was, but perhaps that was because The Melting Pot is just a bit better. In any case, they raised their prices and moved to a newer facility, but I think the quality of service was less and they serve less dipping things than they used to. Dave was unhappy about the lack of bread variety...he likes the rye and especially the pumpernickel. The part that got me was this. We ordered a bottle of champagne to celebrate our anniversary. We hadn't even finished what we were paying for by dessert and she comes out with 2 complementary half-glasses of a different champagne in honor of our celebration. I'm sure they could have done something else to help us celebrate, but more champagne on top of what we already had?? What a waste!

Never-the-less, we had a good anniversary and had a good time with our fondue. When we got home, we opened our "10-year" box. At our wedding we had everyone fill out a questionaire as to where they thought we would be in 10 years. We put them all in a box and sealed to be opened this year. We had a good laugh reading some of the things our family and friends had to say 10 years ago. It was fun.

Sunday, we had a whole different celebration in honor of Janea. We had a baby-naming ceremony followed by quite a party with more food than we could have possibly eaten. I don't know what I was thinking, but there is tons of food going to waste in my kitchen because I can't figure out what to do with it all. I really need a full sized freezer instead of the half-freezer I have now. I just wish I could convince Dave to get one of those deep freeze ice boxes. It would make things much better. We used to have a freezer outside....wish we still did!

Oh! and I got a camera for our anniversary so I can take and post pictures again. I'll do that another day. Right now, I need to go load up toys into a garbage bag....will they ever learn???
