Double Celebration

Tonight, we not only celebrated the hubby's big birthday but we celebrated our friend's 20th Wedding Anniversary too. I had seen my friend at work yesterday when he stopped by and I asked him what he and his wife were doing for the big celebration. He said they may go out. I told him about our dinner and asked if he wanted to tag along and him and the wife agreed. So that is how we got to celebrate a wedding anniversary with our birthday.

It's hard to imagine friends our age who have been together for 20 years but it looks like we have one set of friends who fit just that distinction. Who are these people you ask? They are no other than the Forsgren's, whom were married when they were 18 and 20 years old. As if that isn't amazing enough in this day and age, they married after only knowing each other for 6 months.

The four of us went to Ruth Chris Steak House for dinner to celebrate. Ruth Chris is known for their 500 degree buttery cooked steaks that are ooh ooh good! Ruth Chris is pretty good about asking you if you have any special occasions when you call to make reservations and so of course I said, yes, we have two. When we arrived at our table there were cards and beads that outlined our celebrations and then our waiter made a big deal. After enjoying our second great meal at Ruth Chris our waiter brought out some free dessert which we all enjoyed.

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

What is Twilight?

I have loved movies and worked in movies and I consider myself knowledgable about movies but I have no idea what this whole Twilight craze is all about. Do you? I know it's something to do about vampires and that it's the new Harry Potter but what the heck is it? All of the sudden everywhere I go I hear about Twilight. They are interviewing talent on the radio and I have no idea who these stars are. It's like Hollywood grew a new list of talent over night and didn't tell me. Anyhoo, that movie opened last night to gang buster numbers but yet, I have no idea. I have no idea about the Jonas Brothers either. Am I getting old? I guess so.
