8 Years Of Marriage in It's My Life

James and I had our anniversary yesterday, we had actually had a weekend get away two weeks prior. It was the first time that we had actually left Dante with my parents for a full two days, he was picked up by grandma from daycare on Friday and we didn't get him until Sunday afternoon. We unplugged for the weekend, no internet... no watches or time to decide our fate, it was sooo nice. We slept in Saturday, went fishing, caught a stupid amount of fish (we only kept 10.) That night we ate at the Casino, played a few slots, went to a movie, went home and had a drink, and then went to bed without having to fight with a 4 year old over bed time. Sunday we slept in again and simply enjoyed connecting again. Of course we're back to the grind again, working hard so we can get ourselves ahead. We're hoping in 9-10 months we can sell this place and get into a bigger place... we're starting to feel cramped... Dante needs a yard... I need a family room that isn't doubled up at a playroom... and bathrooms that have outlets in them (yes... I know WTF right? I have to curl/blow dry/straighten my hair in my bedroom) well no more!
