A DATE TO REMEMBER

Romantic night out turned out to be so disastrous. Ralph and I had been looking forward to our date last Saturday, it was suppose to be an advance celebration for our 4th wedding anniversary. Well the day started out real smooth. I got dressed up and even did my make-up extra special. Kaitlyn was behaved and even gave both Ralph and I a kiss before we left and said she will miss us. I should have known that we have always had worse luck when it comes to planning dates.

Our date turned disastrous when Ralph found the wrong restaurant, lol. We just burst out laughing. We continued driving to find the right restaurant which took a little while. When we finally found it and got in, we were shocked to find out how long the wait was going to be. Guess how long? The wait was 2 1/2 hours to be seated. Ralph and I just turned around and went out. Red Lobster was just across Firbirds we went to see if it was also swamped and it was. Minimum wait was 30 min. After hearing that we just hightailed on to the road. We decided to just eat at our favorite Chinese buffet but Ralph wanted to see if Texas Roadhouse and Lone Star. Both places were also swamped. But before the end of the night we finally found a place where we didn't have to wait at all. And that story is for another time. Our date may have turned out to be a disaster but it was a day worth remembering. Ralph and I laughed so much and just had a good time in spite of everything.

OUR FIRST YEAR

My first time to join in this meme, so I'm going to make this good,lol.....

The first year of being married,hhhhmmmmmm?? I admit it was not easy but it wasn't hard. I had to get use to a lot of things from the country, environment, food, people, language, everything. You could say I was in marital shock. We got married on a snowy, cold and freezing Valentines Day. I not only married my husband but also his little girl. We got married and a few days after found out we were expecting the newest addition. It was another thing being married and pregnant. Our marriage is not perfect but who has a perfect marriage? We have our own faults but one thing I can say is we have never had a full blown fight. Yes we do have misunderstanding but things always get resolved by the end of the day. The one thing I love about my husband is he does not hold grudges,lol. I sometimes get so mad at him even more because he won't hold a grudge and he forgives and forgets. He adores our little girls and dotes on them. A good and loving father and I hope he would just drive me more often to places I want to go and just go shopping with me and keep quiet. I guess thats wishful thinking on my part wanting my man to be patient while shopping,lol.....

In a few more months we will be approaching our 3rd year of blissful marriage. Hopefully and with God's grace we will be together forever..
