1. We filmed our last wedding of the summer over the weekend! The morning of, I was so excited about filming our last one, and everything we’ve accomplished in the past few months, I made us some pumpkin muffins for breakfast to celebrate. The Trader Joe’s box mix is very good if you’re looking for a quick muffin mix. Our next wedding isn’t until November. That means a whole month of free weekends!
2. On Tuesday we celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary. We celebrated in the best way possible, stayed at home and cooked ourselves a delicious steak and lobster dinner. Shawn offered to take me out to a fancy dinner, but all I wanted was a cozy night at home with my mister. It was perfect, very us.
3. This week at work, a customer called to confirm his email address. It was josephtaylor@something.com.
When I was reading it back I said, “Ok, the email address we have on file is Jose PH Taylor at…”
“…Um, it’s Joseph Taylor, but close enough.”
How on earth did I not notice it was Joseph? Ha!
4. It rained a little last week, and I loved the muddy foot prints my dogs left behind on my kitchen floor. So cute!
5. Conversations in Marriage:
(Shawn and I treated ourselves to a couples massage on Sunday, to celebrate filming our last wedding. About half way thru the massage, Shawn’s masseuse asked if it was OK to put a hot towel on his back. He of course said yes. This is our conversation after the massage.)
***
Me: That was the best! How was your massage?
Shawn: Really good. I loved that hot towel they put on my back.
Me: I bet.
Shawn: But then I was really distracted because I kept waiting for them to ask if you wanted a hot towel. For the past 20 minutes I kept thinking, “Hey, when’s Nat getting her hot towel?” Did you get a hot towel?
Me: No, but that’s ok. It’s not a big deal.
Shawn: Dang it, you should have gotten a hot towel!

October 3, 2014 at 9:19 amHa ha, I’m cracking up over the email conversation. When I was an intern I had to read back an address and had no idea what ste. was so I said “site.” I was super embarrassed when they corrected me. Your wine and cheese pic is making me crave that for dinner! Congrats on two years and enjoy your month of weekends off!

October 5, 2014 at 2:18 pmHappy Anniversary lovebirds! Glad you got to enjoy the quiet at home. Sometimes that’s the best.
Well, except in our case where you have to go somewhere because there’s 3 kids at home. And there’s no way it’s gonna be quiet with them here. :)
Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
