I had an absolutely wonderful weekend with husband.
Saturday we slept in late and then spent the day running around and doing errands. We also watched "The Hulk". Fun!
We went to Lowe's to look at Wood Chips for my labyrinth. While we were there, we realized the wood chips weren't exactly what I wanted. So, I got 10 bags of Marble Chips instead. They are white and really show up nicely against the dirt.
My parents are out of town, so I'm walking their dogs every 4 hours until they get back. (They get back today.)
Husband helped me walk the dogs. While we were at my parents house, we snagged a copy of Trivial Persuit and their new Dyson Vacuum cleaner.
Husband kicked my booty at Trivial Persuit! It was fun!
We tested out the Dyson. First, he spent an hour cleaning up and moving stuff of the floor upstairs. Then he spent at least half an hour vacuuming with our vacuum.
Then he brought up the Dyson and revacuumed.
The Dyson we used is the Purple one, specificially for animal hair.
Well, it doesn't use bags, has a clear compartment. That compartment was full of stuff!
Folks...a Dyson is on my wish list!
He was really impressed.
So, that was fun!
Sunday, we slept late again. We walked the dogs, ate lunch, and went to see "A Secret Window" for the start of our 8 Year Anniversary Celebration!
Then we went and walked around our State Botanical Gardens. Then he treated me to Outback!
Then we went and walked the dogs again. And then we played another game of TP. He kicked my booty again!
Then we watched part of a movie and finally went upstairs and !
Unfortunately we left the bedroom windows open. I think the neighbors are going to be knocking on my door to complain sometime soon. He was amused...but I was embarrased!
He told me that he loved spending the day with me. Had such a great time.
3 years ago, he wouldn't have been happy spending more than 3 hours with me.
Now he can't get enough of spending time with me. Amazing!
You know I was just thinking reading you and Sage's threads is sort of like reading newlyweds threads!
It is great reading!!!
I wish CHL and I had had time like that in our marriage. After the horses came home and the one died all of our time was spent on their care rather than any with one another.

I borrowed 'the claw' from my parents. This should make the digging go much easier! As it is now, I have a rock filled X in my back yard...the start of the pattern. It's going to look so great when it's done!
I'm going to visit my parents after work today as they've been out of town and I didn't visit yesterday so that I could make lasagna.
So, I'm probably not going to work on the labyrith tonight. But I'm finding that I make the most progress on the weekends. Getting the marble chips this past weekend with Husband was a big task I'm happy to have accomplished!

Amazing!
