Date night

At the begining of the year Ryan and I commited to do a few things... one of them was to have regular date nights. And well, we are dorks and we like to bowl-- no neither of us are good at it (in fact I think only one game did we get over 100, but it's fun). So last night we ventured out to bowl for a date night.

Yes, he puts up with me while I like to take cheesy pictures. Now that I have a point and shoot again- I can take pictures of us and random things we do. Cause it's just a pain to pull my big camera out every where we go.... but I do like those pictures better. I think that this picture of Ry and I is one of the first ones in a long time (like almost 3 years- since we got married) that I like of us. So I think it's a good start.

Today was back to the normal grind, making meals for the week (yummy chicken enchilada soup w/ extra beans) and 2 hours chipping ice and snow off the driveway and trying to find drains on our street so that we wouldn't have a flood... we didn't find any drains, the flood remains. It's been raining all day-- super icy out and we are expecting, yep, you got it, another storm!!

So more than the ache in my hands, and back.... but the pure joy of not having to scrape my car in the morning, makes me smile. Presidents day! Joy! I would be even more excited if I got paid for it as well, but instead I will revel in the joy that I don't have to trudge through the snow I get to stay home and check things off a list a mile long of things I need to get done!

Hope you are all healthy and safe. I hope someone out there reading this is having sunshine. If you have some sun, please send it our way!
