happy 7 to us

Wes & I celebrated 7 years of marriage this week. Holy smokes.

My parents took the boys this afternoon so we could go to a matinee movie and dinner. But we opted for some lounge time in the pool over a movie and it was fabulous. We sat on rafts in our own backyard and had an actual conversation. Rested in the sun. Ate popsicles. Read. It was niiiccce.

We finished off our few hours kid-free with an early dinner at Bahama Breeze with salad, pasta, onion rings and a pina colada. It was tasty.



To back up a bit - we're used to celebrating our anniversary early with a trip to Hawaii [courtesy of Wes' work] but they didn't go this year so we missed our kid free week on the beach! So even though today was only a few hours . . . and our backyard is nothing like Hawaii . . . and driving on the 215 in our car is not the same as the coastline in a convertible . . . we had time for US and it was nice. Thanks mom & dad.

What were the boys up to? Well . . .



My dad took Nate to see Despicable Me in 3d. Nate LOVED it. And they were twins when we showed up. Same shirt. Same glasses. Same hat.



They also went swimming where my dad got Nate to dive down and pick up rings from the bottom of the shallow end. I'm pretty sure the Thompsons joined them in the pool.

And this little guy about drove his grandma nuts for a few hours. He's teething.



It was a fun day had by all of the Griffeths.
