7th Anniversary

We had our 7^th wedding anniversary on August 11^th.  Dave had to work, but he bought me flowers, and we arranged to have our friend Terra watch the girls so we could go on a date later in the week.  Eva enjoys going over to her house to play with her kids, and Terra is one of the few people who Amanda will stay calm with, and even fall asleep in her arms.  We went to Olive Garden for the first time in over a year.  It was nice to have some kid-free couple time.  As we left, our waiter commented “that was quick!”, but it didn’t seem like we’d been in a rush.  We’re just so used to eating quickly before getting interrupted (especially me; I’m lucky if I get to sit down for half a meal).  Dave gave me a new PDA as an anniversary present, since my last one died a year ago (a great bargain, used, off Craigslist, but it works great!), and it’s nice to have that convenience again.
