A Wonderful Weekend With My Husband

I took off work last Friday and this Monday, so I could spend some time in my real house with my husband. I headed up to Omaha Friday morning bearing my anniversary gift to him. Curtains for our dining room table. I wish I had a picture of them. Before you start saying how lame an anniversary present that is, let me remind you that Cotton is the theme gift for year 2, and I actually made these myself. I bought a sewing machine and material and started my new sewing hobby with a pretty big project. They turned out ok after many bumps in the road and having to figure out how to fix my mistakes. They are now hung in our wonderful dining room. The only thing left is to get our chairs covered to match. While I was up there, we also decked out our basement. It has the beginnings of an all out bachelor's pad. (E you've still got an open invitation to claim it for your own.) We bought a bright green shag rug and have a TV set up with a folding disk chair. My futon will eventually go down there as well as the gamecube. We've got an old school original Nintendo down there, but no power cord for it. If any of you have one to spare by chance, we'll take it. We're not even sure it works, but it would be worth a try.
Anyway, the weekend was filled with hanging out with friends (Armand's got a whole lot more friends than I do...), eating out, shopping, wine drinking, and a nice dinner date with just the two of us. I got to go to church with Armand Gene and was reminded that I absolutely love our new church. Everyone there is so genuine and really wants to get to know you and be your friend.
I'll be moving in a couple of weeks to an unknown place in Dayton, OH. I'm kind of nervous about it, since Armand won't be there to help me with it all. I'm going to start organizing and packing the things I can this week.
The weekend before I move, I'm going with my sister to LA, CA. We're going to try to get on The Price Is Right. She is a big fan, and thinks she could totally win. I always have no clue what things cost, but I'll have her there, if they call me down the aisle by mistake. We're trying to come up with ideas for how to decorate some t-shirts to wear or something that will bring attention to us. We've both got interesting names, so Marcilyn says we have a better chance of getting called down. If you come up with any ideas, let me know.
Oh, Armand says he will try to blog soon, but in the meantime, just read my blog. He has Babershop Choir practice tonight, but he might be able to find time tomorrow. Oh, I want to remind everyone that New Year's is still on at the Fondren house in Omaha. Uncle Leighton just bought his plane ticket. E, I'm sure you're coming, but are you flying or riding your future new motorcycle up? Justin and Holly, you guys should be able to fly SW cheap, right? Scott and Andy, I know it's a long ways for you guys, but you've still got to come!!!! My Sister and Brother-in-Law might be able to come, too. Well, that's enough for now. I'll try to post again soon.
