What a fantastic weekend!

Friday night we had an incredible 3 year anniversary date. We started off at Coquette where I had my very first dirty martini with blue cheese stuffed olives, I drank the whole thing and ate 2 out of the 3 olives...the 3rd I gave to David. For those of you that don't know I HATE olives, which is so wierd because I LOVE salty and savory. I had been craving a martini since we started watching the TV series Mad Men and finally I indulged Friday. Back to our date... we enjoyed beef tar tar in the bar area and then walked over to Mura where we indulged in some great sushi,saki and pomegranate martinis (they make theirs with gin and pom liqueur).

Saturday was the most.productive.day.ever! I got the craft room closet cleaned out and organized, scrubbed our 40sqft tile shower,cleaned the whole house,did all laundry, went to an hour long gym class, finally got some pictures mailed out that I had been meaning to do, David mowed and blowed the whole yard and washed and vaccumed both cars while I cleaned the insides and then we painted the whole shed and made a fabulous dinner!

I woke up Sunday morning put some pork in the crockpot and baked some banana nut muffins, after all the work on Saturday, Sunday I just relaxed, rented some movies and hung out with the cats while David was plastered to the TV watching football....At one point while I was laying in bed watching my "chick flicks" and I was filled with the most overwhelming happiness. I think because I finally realized I don't need a 2nd job (even though it would be nice to have), money is not everything and we will be just fine. I don't know where this fear of the future comes from , I guess I just think and think and it eventually warps in to worry. I can't get babies off the brain and how once we are pregnant, there will be no extra time, so maybe I am trying to fit it all in? I felt like this weekend freed my mind from all of the little worries and made me look at the big picture and I am truly lucky to have such a  phenomenal husband that puts me at ease more than he knows and probably more than I tell him.

When you think about it, people who have much less than you guys do have lots of offspring, and they get by.

Sure, money makes things easier, but you guys have love, and that's the most important thing you can give your children.

Your parents did it without a ton of money honey (and look how great you and Jason turned out!), so can you!
