8 months and Valentine's Day

Saturday was our 8 month anniversary. We also celebrated Valentine's Day on Saturday, so it was a double celebration. We exchanged our gifts to each other. I bought Carl a pair of work-out pants, an IU T-shirt, and a DVD of Pilgrim's Progress. We watched that on the laptop Sunday night after church. Carl bought me flowers (see the post below), a hair dryer (I really needed one), a box of "Turtles" (chocolate covered pecans with caramel), and a nice cup that I can use for my hot tea. We went to the Old Spaghetti Factory downtown Indy on Saturday evening for dinner. We wanted to walk around Monument Circle but it was too chilly. We had to wait about an hour and an half at the restaurant for a table. The food was good though.


I didn't take any pictures of our Valentine's date. But here is another wedding picture to celebrate our 8 months of being married.

Candle Giveaway!

Since my husband is working on a Saturday; since it's been a cloudy, rainy day; and since it's been almost two months since I have done a blog post. I am doing a GIVEAWAY! Carl is working on a Saturday evening for a co-worker, but he will have Labor Day off. That will be nice because Carl will be able to stay at our family reunion as long as he likes. For the past few years, he has only been able to stay for an hour before heading into work. Instead of staying home by myself, Mom and I went shopping. We went to a consignment store called Off The Hanger, where I bought this pair of shoes for only $6:   Cute, huh?   We also went to Bath and Body Works. They were having a Labor Day Sale. The 3-wick candles are 2 for $20 this weekend. The mini candles are 2 for $5, and they also have lots of other things on sale. I love it when they have the candles on sale. I absolutely love the candles at Bath and Body Works!   I bought these two large candles.  ...

What do you collect?

Image
I am sure every person out there has some odd or crazy thing he or she collects. Especially when you travel...do you have a certain object you like to buy/find as a souvenir? Some collect those spoons with the location on the handle. Some like the shot glasses or keychains. Others may enjoy postcards or stamps. I am sure you can think of lots of things you could pick up when you are on vacation or visiting a new location. Me, I like to get these: For some crazy reason, I love to get these smashed pennies. They are usually pretty cheap, only 50 cents to a dollar each, and make a simple souvenir. I thought I had more of these, but maybe I gave some away. The ones here are from Texas, Arizona and Chicago. I look for these penny machines at all the tourist places. I think it's fun. May I also right here say that if you are traveling and come across one of these machines, think of me and get me one? If I may be so bold to ask for a souvenir... I would love to add to my collection!
