Best Husband...Worst Wife

Last night, we decided on a whim that we really needed night alone. We quickly checked the movie times to see which one we would be able to make in time given our short notice plans. The only one we could have made it to was in Spanish Fork seeing Mama Mia, not that either of us wanted to see it anyway. (He was all for the new Batman movie) The entire ride over, I'm trying to convince him it can't possibly be that bad. I kept telling him, "Pierce Brosnan's in it, he's 007 cool & Boostrap Bill from Pirates is in it too!"
Of course, we were the first in the theatre, (thanks to the entire town of Spanish Fork being at the rodeo...) Slowly, a few more people started to arrive....a group of giggly middle aged women, a bunch of teen girls...after a while, we realized he was the only guy in the place. Then as luck would have it....another man walked into the theatre. True, he was probably 90, but it still counts. The entire time, he was rolling his eyes so much and laughing at how lame the acting seemed, I kept feeling worse and worse that not only was I making him sit through it, I was sitting through it too! As soon as the credits began, we bolted for the door laughing all the way to the car. As we were driving out of town, he declares that he needs to see the new Batman at least 3 times in a row to cleanse his mind of the past 2 hours! If you want to get a rise out of him, just break into your own rendition of "Dancing Queen" just to make sure he won't forget our evening!

We've survived 2 whole years!

Addison is TWO! I can't believe it. I'll cover it more when her gift gets here from back order, and I get the pictures from her party up on-line. Until then, you get this picture. Addison is a ball of energy, so what better way to put it to use. Someday...eventually...this will show up in the mail and then you can see it in real life, with a much cuter kid jumping on it. Until then you'll have to use this for a mental picture:

On Board

Lindsey made me jump on board this blogging thing. I figure I'll work on it this summer and then probaby die down a little with it when things get hectic this fall. I have 30 kids in my class this year. It should be crazy and fun. I'm now starting to get into all of the back to school sales trying to get my classroom ready. If anyone wants to pick up your quota of notebooks and folders at the local ShopKo give me a holler! If not I fear I will be going through the line 10 times each day since most of the stuff I need has a limit of 5 per customer!

So while I get the hang of this, feel free to comment and let me know you stopped by!
