Anniversary weekend!

So, as always I make up my mind to sit and write a blog and it never happens. I will put most of the blame on my slow laptops...yes plural. I have both my personal and work laptop and they are BOTH not quite right lately. Secondly, I blame the fact that the only way I am able to post pics is from my phone (which I usally just go to the pics I've posted in facebook and save them on my computer and then post them on here: not the best quality).  We are in the process of picking out a new camera but I really just want the old one back. :( oh well!! There are far worse things that could happen!

We spent last weekend at the Gaylord for our 5 year anniversary. Originally, we were going to eat in North Richland Hills and then go out to the Glass Cactus for some Spazmatics (fun!) When Nanny Maria offered to stay the night at our house (which she has done before), we decided why not just stay at the Gaylord!! Glad we did! Not only did we get a night out without the baby, but we got to spend all day with little man by the Gaylord pool. He had an absolute BLAST! They had a toddler area with a little waterfall, little mushroom lookin thing that sprayed water, and a very shallow area for them to play in. He loves being outside, water, and people watching so this was perfect for him. :) He even got his first kiss from a girl!! Seriously though.....he has been giving me kisses for a few weeks now (talk about the sweetest thing EVER!), and he was sitting in the pool with this adorable 2-year-old girl when he went in for it....open mouth and all!! HAHA! I felt like I needed to apologize to the little girl's dad who was sitting right there. ;-) My little man is already quite the little casanova.  Here are some pics I was able to get on my phone.
The life jacket probably last about 5 minutes tops

My mop-headed cutie pie covered in watermelon: but he sure was happy!

That night, Todd took Andrew back to the house to meet up with Maria (who was able to go to the Rangers game that afternoon with her family thanks to Todd!) while I got ready for the evening at the hotel. It really was a great idea! A short little vacay away from the house to celebrate 5 years of married bliss! :) We ate so much  at The Old Hickory we thought  we would burst but decided we may as well order the dessert since it was free. Good thing it was :Peanut butter and jelly creme brulee: definitely a bad idea!! :\ Disgusting!



Most disgusting dessert ever: PB and J creme Brulee: at least it was free!

Dinner at Old Hickory at The Gaylord Texan

After dinner, we took a shuttle from the Gaylord to the Glass Cactus for a fun-filled evening of adult beverages, music, and good times. Strangely the same couple sitting right behind us at the restaurant  (in front of me I should say), recognized us at The Glass Cactus and even told us Happy Anniversary.  I definitely couldn't forget them : the couple sitting on the same side of the booth at the restaurant getting pretty hot and heavy while I sat directly in front of them.  Todd's response: "I remember when we used to sit on the same side of the booth"  I guess we are just an old married couple who would rather enjoy the comfort of our own side of the booth and save the PDA for a more appropriate setting. ;-)

What a fun night!
