Happy 15th Anniversary

This year Rob and I celebrated our 15th anniversary.  Crazy that it's been 15 years....it seems like it's been shorter and longer than that.  :)  We have been through so many things mundane and exciting, happy and scary.  But I'm so glad I've had Rob by my side through it all.  

Something I've been wanting to do is visit the Food Nanny store.  She opened a new store about 15 minutes from my house and she sells all kinds of expensive stuff there.  Ha ha.  But when we got there we saw that it was closed until after the new year.  So we just did a drive by.  


I had to hop out for a picture!

Fortunately, this store is right next to the world's biggest Costco store.  I told Rob we had to go check it out.  It really is big.  We were pretty amazed at the size of the cooler areas.  They were way bigger than the one we usually go to.  They had lots of things we've never seen.  We didn't get a cart and it's a good thing because we left with an armful of stuff.  ha ha.  If we had a cart we would have gotten a lot more!


In the freezer section, they had whole lambs you can buy.  

Emery said she really wanted to do the donut on a string game.  So we got some donuts and made that happen.  :)

Riley's strategy made me laugh!

Finley enjoyed the taco we brought home from Taco Bell for lunch.

Then we went and saw the new ghostbuster movie in the theater.  We really enjoyed it.  When they first started the previews the sound was SO LOUD.  I was thinking I was going to have to cover my ears the entire movie.  But they turned it down a bit, thank goodness.  It was a little much for my old ears.  

Anyway, then we got burgers and ate them at home.  Thanks to Sadie and good kids so we can go out and spend time alone with each other.  It's so great.  Happy Anniversary!

Also, I think it is worth mentioning that it was also the 4th anniversary of me finding out about my brain tumor.  I can't believe it's been that long!  I still feel effects of the surgery at least a few times a week.  We call it my "tubey" referring to my shunt that has a tub running from my brain, down my side and to my abdomen to drain my cerebral fluid.  It is often painful, but every time it hurts, I'm reminded of the miracle that I'm still here.  I'm so grateful for the doctors and nurses who helped me in my scary time of need.  I hope they are all doing well.
