Anniversary Weekend!

Monday was officially our 3rd year anniversary but it was more of a weekend celebration. Chris was able to get Monday off so we were able to have a good 3 day weekend. Friday night we were able to go to Jordon's friends birthday party. Matilda and Jordon are about 3 weeks apart, she came to his birthday so we were able to go to hers. It was a pizza party theme with a small water table outside for the kids to play around. We then had cupcakes and icecream and both Matilda and Jordon had a great time with the frosting, of course Jordon is quite clean compared to Matilda. After Jordon was in bed, we enjoyed watching The Tales of Despereaux and being able to relax from the week. I got Chris his favorite chocolates, Dove Dark Chocolates. Chris made me flowers, with chocolate kisses inside, that i haven't touched yet because i love seeing flowers on the table that aren't wilting!

Saturday we decided we wanted to go to New In Town in the dollar theatre, so we packed up Jordon and we all went and saw a pretty good movie. It was pretty good, but just a one time show. But it was good to be able to spend the day together. We were planning to go to the warner's wedding reception that night, but things didn't go as planned, we went to the 5 oclock showing and jordon was starving afterwards, ate all the snacks i brought, so we went to Chick Filet and came home and put jordon to bed. Afterwards I gave Chris a homemade coupon book. Then i decided to see if I could fit in my wedding dress and luckily i still do, it's very tight but it still fits. So here are some pictures of us acting like newlyweds again! The sleeves were quite tight, i guess after lugging jordon around for a year, my arm muscles have gotten bigger!
Oh and by the way, i did get a hair cut!
Sunday was quite a busy day, we had Stake Conference over at the Frisco Legacy Building. We could have went to the Colony Building but with everything going on and finding out that Dad is the New Stake President, it was a family gathering over there. Jordon slept great on Saturday Night and so on Sunday morning we had to be over at Frisco at 9:30 for the 10 AM Conference and he was so pooped. He didn't take a nap that morning since there wasn't time. I felt bad for having to leave right after Conference and missing out on the setting apart. Chris stayed and I drove home to put Jordon down for a nap. He fell asleep in his carseat right away and slept three hours that afternoon. I had to meet up with the Primary President that afternoon because I got a new calling as the Primary Secretary. Sunday evening we recooped from all the happenings of the day, we were still in shock over Dad's new calling but we know he will be a great Stake President.
Monday came! Of course our plans didn't happen. We were going to go to Scarborough Renaissance Fair, but i guess they changed things and it's only open on Saturdays and Sundays. Instead we had a pretty lowkey day, it was still quite fun, but the plans were different. It was very stormy that morning and Jordon has a "teething cold" so he felt like sleeping from 9:45-12. We took him to Mom's house where she watched him for us while we were able to go out for a few hours, walked around Grapevine Mills, got Chris a new dress shirt and tie, and we got a few small cheap cookbooks on sale and a glow in the dark puzzle! We're very excited to put that together. That evening we put Jordon down early, he didn't nap at Mom's house since he slept too much that morning, and we had a candlelit dinner with Chicken Enchiladas and for dessert a Strawberry Pie! Of course i have to work on that pie recipe, still tasted good, but it had strawberry Gelatin in it that didn't really gelatinize. Oh well, it still tasted great. And then i gave him his big present i made off of shutterfly, a love story photo book from when we were dating up through the wedding and a couple of pictures of us with Jordon when he was a couple of months old. Chris got me some wonderful fudge chocolate and the new Rascall Flatts CD, unstoppable.
All in all it was a great weekend, happy anniversary to us! Three years have gone so fast, it's been a wonderful three years and i am so happy to be married to such a wonderful man!
