A Day with Hubby

Saturday was a great day! We spent the entire day together doing stuff...not separately...but together! We started off by going to the temple and after a session, we sealed my grandma to her parents. Totally great spirit with them all! It was great seeing old friends on our session...Missy & Corby Gardiner!!! We are definitely going to re-connect with them in a few weeks! Curtis was his counselor in the Bishopric in Tucson. We also saw Stephanie Walker's mom! She asked us to keep taking care of her kids! We do...we love them!!!

Went to Seagull book to pick up the latest copy of Gerald Lund's book "The Undaunted"!!!! When he was called as a 70, I thought to myself..."Oh no...does that mean he won't be writing great historical novels any more?" Once he was released...he was back to writing. I love reading his books. I learn so much more about the history when you add personal feelings to it!

We then tracked down an Office Max in Mesa for hubby to get special pens. He is so particular what kind he carries in his pockets and use. But...we FOUND the ones he wanted.

Off to Trader Joe's. Oh how I miss having Trader Joe's so close to where we lived in Tucson. Now they are a half hour drive away...so we tracked down the one in Mesa while in that neck of the woods. We had this awesome Havest Grain rice blend at Serina's in-laws in May. Oh....sooo good. So I bought 4 packages for the pantry. Each bag was only $2.69! You cook it in chicken broth and it is yummy!

Since hubby's office is closing here shortly...we went to Things Remembered to find special gifts and have them engraved for his "special employees". I told him he should buy himself a PARTING gift...but he wouldn't.

We then went and had a very nice romantic lunch at the Legacy Suites (our local time share). They have a great restaurant (and we have free coupons!!!). So it gives us a relaxing time together.

Then home...to write out bill payments, plan the week, and we watched an old movie with Frankie Avalon and Annette Funacello "How to Stuff a Wild Bikinii". Old movies were so much safer to watch than today!!!

I certainly enjoy days where we can be together. You would think with no kids at home that would be the norm....NOT. So I LOVE it when it happens!

Amen to that private time with the hubby. I cherish it more all the time! So what's is this all about any way? Maybe it helps us appreciate each other more!
