last tuesday i headed to cleveland just for the night..and had a wonderful time! we visited and i watched kevin bowl. coming back the next day was really tough, since we hadn't seen each other in over a week. then, friday evening, kevin arrived around 6:30..and we immediately headed out for a dinner date :) after a wonderful meal at chili's, we went to wal-mart to start some shopping for the nieces & nephews. after browsing the toy area at wal mart for a while, we headed back to my apartment (after purchasing a favorite of mine, THE ITALIAN JOB, for FIVE DOLLARS!). saturday morning, we woke up rather early...for various reasons...1. kevin couldn't sleep because of pain in his arms and 2. we had an EXTREMELY busy day ahead of us! after breakfast together, we headed to visit my mom and take her a piping hot cup o' coffee from the brew. after our visit, we headed to the Co-Op to look for some hunting gear for Chris, Kevin's brother. After we decided to purchase our hunting gear elsewhere, we headed to Lindsay's shop so Kevin could get a quick haircut. FINALLY, after taking care of ALL those errands and showering and getting dressed, we were on our way to tuscaloosa. it. was. packed. we started our shopping spree at toys r' us. carrie and bobby met us there, and we shopped with them for the rest of the day. it was wonderful to see them and spend time with them, and i'm so glad they got to meet kevin!! after a wonderful dinner at depalma's in downtown tuscaloosa, kevin & i headed home. we watched a movie on the couch together, and slept there for the rest of the night! we were exhausted! sunday was a very lazy day for us. i was a sweet, sweet girl and went out and got breakfast :) and we ate and went back to bed! around 1, we got up and went to my parents for a bit, then to wal mart to pick up some last minute odds and ends for christmas. after a dinner of yummy mexican food with my whole family, kevin headed back to the delta. i wasn't as sad as i usually am on sunday evenings, because he will be back on WEDNESDAY! wednesday is my last day of work for the year..and after i get off, we will head to my parents and have christmas with them and taylee and braylon. christmas morning will be our christmas together, then we'll head to cleveland for christmas with kevin's family. and i will remain in cleveland until january 3rd! i hope he doesn't get sick of me after spending a week and a half with me! :) flossie jayne will be accompanying me on this journey..it will be her first trip to the delta...in the past she's stayed with her nana. she's pretty excited!
i'm really excited for the holidays this year. taylee is already talking about santa bringing toys. she's really getting into it this year...braylon, not so much. but he's still a sweet, sweet lil man. :) and i'm also thankful i get to spend time with kevin & his wonderful family. he's truly my most treasured gift this year :) MERRY CHRISTMAS!
