Rango

As many of you now know, based on Jacob's facebook status, he won 2 free tickets to the movies. It was amazing to me that he was able to get through to a radio station let alone actually win the tickets! Let me tell you how the day at the movies went.....

Saturday morning... Jacob says "Amy I have a surprise for you today!! Its a big surprise and your not allowed to know about it." Ha Ha Ha :) So of course, for the rest of the day I kept asking and trying to pry the surprise out of him. Were we going bowling? Going out for dinner? Going shopping? But like always, he wouldn't tell me. We continued our original plans for the day: grocery shopping and studying until about 1ish. Then Jacob said "ok time to go...lets go." So we drove, and since we are new to the city I had NO idea where we were going, until we pulled into the a theater. The movies!! Jacob surprised me with a Saturday outing to see Rango!

Now, I had never been thrilled to see this movie but knew that Jacob had been wanting to see it since it came out. The commercials made it seem like a funny, kid kind of movie; when in reality it was not a kids movie. It was more like an animated adult movie. I was shocked that it was rated pg and couldn't imagine bringing our kids to see this movie. There came a point in the movie when Jacob and I almost got up and left because it was very adult and not funny.

Even though the movie wasn't great, it was sooo much fun to spend an afternoon at the movies with my hubby. We had a great time together and can't wait to win more free tickets!!

Rules we broke today

Today, we broke ALLLLL the rules.

What a great day spent together accomplishing many things that needed to be done!

First we broke the "never go to the bank on a Saturday" rule.
Then we broke the "never go to Best Buy on Saturday" rule.
Then we got even more daring and went grocery shopping on Saturday! This isn't just a rule we broke, it's practically a capital offense.
After getting wonderful deals on all sorts of food (We miss Kroger and Meijer ALOT!!!), we broke another rule-coming home to Wallace and then leaving again. After unloading all the wonderful groceries and putting them away, we broke yet another rule: don't eat breakfast after 12PM.....

Jacob had French toast, bacon, 2 sunny-side up eggs with strawberries on top (totally a Jacob breakfast). After which he said he still very much missed "Jackies" back in Michigan with their wide variety of Pancakes and French Toast.
Amy had.....(Drum roll) A Chicken Sandwich. Hey at least she is branching out (away from chicken fingers and chicken nuggets).
After a very eventful morning and afternoon, the couple came home, wrote a blog, and lived happily ever  after (after Laundry).


What a day!
