Our 8th anniversary

On Tues we had been married for 8 yrs. We decided to do 8 diff things for our 8th anniv. We each had to come up with 4 diff things to do, and tell a close friend so that weren't any overlaps. We had a lot of fun, spent too much money, and did some things we haven't done in years. It began yesterday after the girls flew to FL with my Garrett's mom, and we took Grayson to my sisters.


Our first thing was walking around Cary Town and eating pastries from Jean Jacques (fabulous).
Garrett tasting the pastries...... oh so yummy!
From there we went for a boat ride on the canal. It was a 40 mins ride with historical facts. In these pics I think I have finally realized i need to focus more on me, because there is a lot of me right now, and i really don't like it.
Thirdly we went to play laser tag. We ended up playing with 6 other kids (prob middle schoolers), but fun.
My score card. Garrett did beat me, but those kids were crazy!
Fourth item was dinner at Dot's Back Inn it is an old dinner in Richmond. We loved it, they serve gourmet food, it was amazing. We saw it on the Food Network about a month ago. Lastly yesterday we went to see a movie (Wanted). It was good, a bit intense.

Before dinner, outside of the diner!

Today we started the day out at home and headed to get pedicures. We both got one at the salon i go to. It was a lot of fun, Garrett was unsure throughout the whole process, but he enjoyed his feet afterwards.
When we first got there, we were soaking out feet!
His face says it all. He wanted to kick her in her face for doing that!
From there we had lunch and then went to ride go-Karts. Our last item on the agenda was Busch Gardens for roller coasters. But instead of riding them, Garrett just had them going off in his stomach so we had to leave. We had a great time, but were glad to pick up our baby boy!

Not at all sure whats going on here, but we tried to get the sign in here too.
