Courtship





Date night in the Slade household of late usually includes homework-ing in the same room. And then watching a movie if we are awake enough.

Today though- we walked thru a little bit of old Alexandria. Colin bought running shoes, I bought place mats and pie tins. After more homework in the finally warm sunshine here, we had another typical date night. Colin played the guitar. I baked.

We are pretty exciting. I know.

Colin's Charisma

Colin sings this song from time to time.  I love him.

Break

Dear Colin,

I miss these mountains:




Today Emily and I took a drive down memory lane. 1909 Parkridge Drive. Our first home. :)




And then it was family dinner time.




Thanks for letting me spend my spring break in Utah. :)

Love.

"Commercial Crass"

We talked about the folk revival of the late 1950s and 1960s in class this week.  I led the discussion with another classmate--we showed this video:



The whole time I just was thinking about growing up the the Smothers Brothers Version.


I have my personal favorite.  :)

Church Ball





Friday evening. Colin's playing church ball. It's pretty violent.

Car: Acura TL

Our car is finally legal. A year and a half after we move here...



It has a cardinal on it. My favorite part.

Amy's Birthday

Lazy day. Perfect day.




Presents!








We went to the grocery store for dinner- and to get my favorite cereal. :)




To further celebrate this weekend, we went to Benihanas!





I love my husband. He spoils me. :)
