7 years

Today (Sunday) is our 7th wedding anniversary and on the 7th!  Today I also completed my last class and am done with school!  We went to church this morning and it was an awesome service!  Then we had a little drama with the kids.  I got a couple deals at Walgreens on some extra school supplies on the way home.  Finally we went to a late lunch at Applebee's and did some shopping at Target.  I had a few things to get for lunches now that school is starting again and some coupons I wanted to use.  I actually save $18 in coupons while we were there and bought a Christmas present!  Overall we had a good day and it was nice to get out just the 2 of us and enjoy our meal.  We very rarely get out just the 2 of us.  It was awesome to walk around Target and actually be able to think.  We could have easily spent another hour or two in that store browsing.  We'll definitely have to get a babysitter again soon for some more alone time and Christmas shopping.

I'll try to post a picture of us with our edible arrangement from my dad and Kathy!  That was so sweet of them to think of us!  We were really surprised!  Our neighbors who have been married about 20 years longer than us are celebrating on Tuesday so we took it over and shared with them! 

Tomorrow is Andrew's first day of school and I will be praying for him to have a good day and calm nerves.  I know how anxious he can get and it is going to be all day now that he is a big first grader!  I'm so nervous for him but I am trying to be very positive.  He and I do not accept change very well or transition very well.  I am very excited about his teacher.  She is a Christian and attends our church and is just absolutely lovely.  She is very structured and organized and I know it is going to be a fantastic year!  We all just have 1st day jitters!  I will post pictures and stories as soon as I can!
