A Lucky Girl

We recently celebrated out 6th anniversary. It was my turn to plan and thanks to Tricia and Brad I surprised Gregg and we took off to St. George. I packed all our bags and when Gregg got home from work we got in the car and left. He had no idea what was going on. (I even made him drive.) About 20 miles outside of St. George he said "okay, I just need to know if we have 20 miles left or a 130." I lied and said 130, but then felt bad and told him the truth. It ended up pouring rain most of the time, but it was still a wonderful get-a-way.

So here goes the 600 things I love about us....

1. I'm totally kidding and realize even if I did write 600 things no one would read them. But, here ARE a few funny things that I would like to remember about our trip.

-Me forgetting Gregg's hair pomade. Going to Walgreen's, buying the generic brand of LA Looks for .99. Gregg applying it to his hair in the car. Using a 1/3 of it just to get a little bit of hair standing up. Us, laughing that I would EVER buy such horrible hair product, but that I would rather Gregg do his hair with something then nothing at all. Hey, I'm a hairstylist.

-Being called KIDDOS by our waiter who was probably our age. Gregg's salmon being completely raw in the middle. Waiter telling us, if we didn't want it that way, we should have said so in the beginning because that's the way the chef prefers it. (what?!)  Waiter later apologizing, admitting it was pretty raw.  Getting free Creme Brulee, just for us kiddos.  

-Playing Bananagrams on our phones while waiting for the movie to start.  No one else in the theater until, a group walks in and sits right next to us. 

-Searching for shopping places on our phones.  Gregg finding a shopping center in Hurricane.  Driving there in the pouring rain.  Find out our shopping center is a FUNERAL HOME, FURNITURE STORE, and two empty spaces.  Gregg, doing a circle around the "shopping center".  Me laughing hysterical, asking Gregg if he would like to shop for our caskets.   Driving back to St. George, in sprinkling rain. 

-Googleing  sites around St. George.  Discovering there is volcanoes.  Driving to them.  Two tiny black hills.  Take pictures anyway, because we drove all that way. 

-Spending time doing anything, with the one I love...Priceless.

FUNNY!!! You have to write those things down sometimes or you'll forget them! (although you might want to forget buying a LA LOOKS hair product! hee hee) ... but truly ... nothing screams Happy 6th wedding anniversary like shopping @ a Funeral Home ... too funny!
