The Text on my cellphone read,
I have taken Wednesday off, why don't we take Frontrunner downtown and go to lunch at Typhoon at the Gateway and maybe catch a movie! Needless to say I was thrilled and so off we went! This was a couple weeks ago but I just got the photos from Dar. We had a great time. I felt like the last person on the planet that hadn't been to Typhoon and I have a thing for trains. We were some of the first to ride the Front Runner which I will probably tell my grandkids and the day just seemed to be for us. I ordered firecracker chicken and Dar ordered Thai Filet something and we ended up trading dishes. A first for us. I took my new bag and it was free icecream day at Ben and Jerry's. At one we decided to live dangerously and sneek in a movie before we had to get back to Jade coming home from school and saw the film about the Harvard students that count cards, the moral is nothing worthwhile ever comes easy. We just missed the train heading back and then the next train was delayed and then they switched trains but we had a great time and Jade held down the fort like a pro as we did not arrive home until six p.m.
I was exhausted but she was so good I let her have an impromptu trampoline pizza party with two of her friends and then quickly regretted it. It was great though, definitely one of my favorite things is holding my husband's hand in the movie theater and still discovering new places with him!
As long as I am on the subject he really is great! He cleans for me, does most of the laundry, lays out my jammies, puts up with my bag fetish and is a great Dad! He is very involved in Jade's school work, he knows all her friends and used to babysit them all day one summer. He also knows the boys that are calling, plays tennis with her, takes her on adventure's, even a trip to Moab when I went to see Wicked in LA. On the weekends he makes breakfast and brings it to us in bed. He picks up scrips for me when I get tired of doing it and he is the one to tell me just go back to bed and sleep when I haven't slept the night before, "it's not like you have a toddler" our only consolation to losing Autumn. He thinks I am beautiful, I think he is blind, and he is fun to be with. When I explain I have to go to the school to volunteer, he crosses his fingers hoping I won't catch anything and he compliments me when I do something new with the house. He really like my new iron "star" collection like rodworks and he teases in a very cute way about my interests in girl stuff. Just yesterday he used a british accent to announce the latest royal wedding.
He likes to make me laugh by putting funny pictures on my laptop background. We are both Democrats in Utah. One night I told friend's it would be great to get Hillary because we would get Bill back and when there was an awkward silence Dar piped up, I agree with Judy! I was proud of him for backing me up and being brave about our political views (we would probably vote for Obama). This past weekend we all happily went flower shopping and Dar planted them for me as I feebly pointed where they should go. I was really weak this weekend and it was a triumph to plant a big pot of flowers and start a roast on Sunday when all my friends were running marathons. But you wouldn't know it. We are doing great thanks to my Husband's great attitude, and gratitude.
Oh ya and He loves my Mom and Dad and always attends stuff for them or brings up visiting them. Thanks honey for being super cool! Love Jude
