9th Anniversary

September 2nd, Paul and I celebrated our 9th anniversary. Over Labor Day weekend, we were kid free and able to have some much needed time together. We kicked off the weekend with dinner at Texas de Brazil. The food is delicious, and a dream for any guy who is a meat lover! Too bad I forgot to snap a picture of us all gussied up. We had a wonderful evening chatting and watching Season 3 of 24. Yep, dinner and home for movies!

Saturday we woke up had a breakfast, and headed to Grapevine to hit the Grapevine Wine Trail. What fun touring the different wine makers and learning more about wine, our likes and dislikes. Being able to spend so much uninterrupted time together - good for the soul of the marriage. We talked serious, fun, dreamed, planned, etc.

What good is a weekend without kids if you don't start doing some hefty project around the house. We tore down the "wing" walls on either side of the house. Who knew sledgehammering bricks would be so much fun. I think Paul's testosterone tripled just buying the sledgehammer!

Ups, downs, bumpy, smooth, tearful, joyful...I am blessed to have Paul by my side through this life's journey. I love you!
