Anniversary weekend

Well we had a wonderful time this weekend. It was a bit of a clusterf**k, but still great. Both kids slept on the way to Louisville so they were ready and rarin' to go. Gentry was in a good mood until we needed to get dressed and then he promptly had a meltdown, so we dosed him with teething tablets, tylenol, benadryl, oragel and the like. I know it sounds a bit much but the kid has exzema, a rash, an ingrown toenail, and is teething, on top of all that we were in a new place. So we left the house to the screaming of our child, knowing how bad it was going to suck for Micah's aunt and uncle. We took out our anger on one another, almost turned the car around and called it quits and then decided to just not speak to each other until we got to the resturant. This may sound bad, but it really wasn't.



We got to the resturant, Micah got his first look at my dress ;-), we had a celebratory toast and about fifteen text messages, and one phone call later, we were feeling a little better about Gentry and the evening ahead.

We had a wonderful meal: Cheese board, lamb pops, ahi tuna, duck breast, raspberry chocolate cake for dessert, and lots of wine! It was better than I remember and just a perfect. We left by 7:15 to get to the Palace on time, we forgot how beautiful it was in there.



The show was so wonderful, the women had an ethereal quality to there voices, at times you felt you were in the middle of a Lord of the Rings elfish dream, until the drums started going and then it felt a little like a Braveheart battle scene.



So all in all it was a great weekend, and our best anniversary yet! 4 down 46 to go.
