We had a great trip!

We made a lot of U-turns while we explored the city and learned that maybe we should have flown (8 hours each way!), but we had lots of grown up fun. We went to a late movie, a fancy dinner, and on a whole shopping trip without once having to feed anyone or hoist a stoller (Thanks Nicole! Thanks Mom! Thanks Erin!).

I did miss the girls, but we've been home about 36 hours now and we're right back into our routine.

Remember how this was our wood anniversary - well, Wayne got me some really great jewelry from etsy that incorporated wood and I got him t-shirts with trees on them. The big gift was supposed to be our bedside tables from IKEA, but that fell apart quickly. Turn out that IKEA bedside tables are short like IKEA beds. Our bed is not short. So we're going to save a little more money and order a whole bed/shelf/table/headboard thing! I can't wait.

And since he's not one to follow the "please-don't-spend-more-than-$20" rule, Wayne got me a new cell phone. It's amazing.

It plays mp3s, take pictures, has games, and is all around colorful - a big change from my bulky bottom of the barrel Nextel phone. O, and there's no radio, I've been switched back to Sprint. Wayne reasons that we can still call each other for free and he really wanted to get me the best phone. I love that guy.

I have one gift to finish - I didn't knit at all while we were gone, per Wayne's request, so I'm feeling a little time crunch, but I think I'll be fine.
