Leavings, Goings, and Comings

I had lots of fun going home this past weekend. I flew in on Thursday, and then stayed at Denise's house from Friday-Sunday, then we were all back at my moms for Monday. I was sad that Christian had to stay in Colorado to work. But it's okay, cause Vince was my buddy all weekend. Here's a few things me and Vince did.

1. Climbed up the crib so Vince could say, "I did it!"



2. Held, kissed, rubbed faces with, and slobbered on McKee.


3. Watched McKee sleep. At one point, Denise and I found crumbled up Goldfish and Granola Bars on McKee's pillow. Vince thought he might be hungry.

4. Ate lots of cupcakes. Also, Vince would inform me to be quiet when the baby was sleeping.

5. Took lots of naps in the warm sun.



6. Took 1,000 baths.

7. Played outside, even when it was only 35 degrees out.


8. Watched Robin Hood 3 times in a row.


9. Practiced saying, "Heeeeyyy baaayyy-beeeeeee."

10. Argued about whether my name is Ryann or Randy. Vince will only call me "Wandy." When the real Randy came over on Sunday night, Vince just called both of us "Wandy."

It was great spending time at Glen and Denises's house with Vince and McKee. Hopefully next time I go, Christian can go with me.

Christian picked me up from the airport yesterday. He didn't have to go back to work, so we drove to the RedRock Ampitheater and walked around a bit. It was lots of fun to go, but I'm very glad to be back home with Christian...even if it is cold and snowy.

Valentine's Day Celebrations

Christian and I celebrated Valentine's day on Saturday. We had so much fun! First, I suprised him with an order of his favorite cupcakes from Cakes Amore here in Littleton. He was very excited for these. It didn't matter that it was 10 in the morning, he was still going to eat some.

(And yes...his beard is back!) Then we gave each other presents. I gave him a pair of Van's shoes, but they were a half size too small. But I also made him an accordian style album that can just sit open somewhere. It's filled with pictures and notes.

Christian gave me two cd's I've been wanting. He gave me the new Phoenix and Vampire Weekend cd's. He told me he always knows what I want because he goes on to different websites and the shopping carts are always still filled with things I've pretended to purchase.

That night, we went out to eat at Jose O'Shea's. It's Christian's favorite mexican food! We both ordered the Blue Plate Special wich comes with: 1 beef taco, 1 smothered bean burrito, 1 cheese enchilada, and rice & beans. Their beans are the best beans I have ever eaten. Yummm! It was soooo delicious. And I'm not a fan of beef, but they hand make their shells so the taco is just as good as anything else on the plate! This isn't a picture of what we ordered...but this is kind of what it looked like.

On our way home, we found a Van's outlet store which was perfect because the shoes I bought Christian were too small, so he got these nice blue shoes instead.

They were buy 1 get one 1/2 off, so being the best husband in the world that he is, he let me get these shoes which were only $7.00. When we went into the store, the male employees were making fun of us because we were already wearing matching Vans...then we left with these. They thought we were crazy and tried to match everything. What can I say? We're just the same people inside and out....well....kind of.

Really?

Women over the age of 30 actually using their Facebook accounts to update the world on their marital problems?

Really?

Drumroll please...

I have landed my dream job. I am now a personal scrapbooker! I get to sit at my work station, scrapbook, and drink vanilla coke all day long. It's the best. Well, okay, just this week I'm a personal scrapbooker for a neighbor. But still. This is what I want to do the rest of my life. And hey, I should get some credit for having a job for a week...right?
