A big weekend!

So, this past weekend was a big one...Friday night, we enjoyed some steaks cooked on the charcoal with Marty & Nancy--lots of food, lots of wine and lots of laughs! Saturday was mine & Rob's 11th wedding anniversary--So, the three of us headed over to Williamsburg for some shopping and dinner. Shane has discovered that Outback Steakhouse is now one of his favorite places to eat. It was such a great day spent with the two most favorite people in my life. It's hard to believe that I've been married for 11 years. I feel like I should be 22 years old but I'm an old married lady that is someones mom :) I'm lucky that I married my best friend and that after 11 years, I can still say with full confidence that he is truly my best friend. :)

On Sunday, we made a somewhat unexpected trip to Richmond and this is what we came home with:

Meet Darcy Norris--she's a 2 year old black lab that needed a good home, so we've given her just that. I knew that we'd get a dog after we moved to Poplar Grove; I just didn't expect it to happen this quickly. I am glad that it did--she is a sweetheart and is so totally in love with Rob (something I can relate to). Shane is excited about her and I'm excited that he now has a little friend to play outside with. She's been with us for 2 days now and she is such a joy. I know there's many family memories that will have her right in the middle of them in the years to come!

Sunday also brought the groundbreaking for the detached garage at the new house....How did I know that would get started before my house was 100% complete?! I guess that's what you get when you've been with someone for 16 years---you kinda know what's gonna happen before it really happens...There's just a few more things left in the house to be done and I'm sure I'll nag enough that they'll be completed soon--

Along with the digging of the footing came Shane's new found love for dirt....haha!


By the way...Nice outfit, dude....
