So we opted out of Schlotzky's and went to Joe's Crab Shack. Neither of us has ever been there and if I can't eat meat an anniversary was the perfect day to order crab legs. I wouldn't call it a standard anniversary restaurant but it was bright and happy, just what we both needed. I had a steamer pot that was delicious! It had crab legs, shrimp, sausage, red potato's, and corn. Colin had a stuffed fish, I already can't remember what kind. :(
It was a nice night, then we came home and watched a movie, he wanted to go see one in the theater but we are going to go Saturday instead since he had to leave the house at 6am this morning.
Right now I should be finishing my cleaning as I have 5 extra bodies (+ 2 more large dogs) staying at our house tonight. It is a really good thing we bought that sleeper couch with a good mattress. But even better than those 5 bodies coming is that we are going to the King Tut Exhibit as a family and then ordering pizza and playing games tonight. This is our Christmas present to do an activity instead of gifts. Getting everyone together is hard as I haven't lived in the same state as them for almost 10 years and one of my sisters has lived in another state for the last 2.
Yeah to having fun as a family! Hope you have a wonderful weekend......and get a Baskin Robbins ice cream cake, they are yummy!

Happy Anniversary
I just have to say Happy Anniversary to my husband of four years! There are days I don't know how you put up with me....like last week. So because I have energy today I am going to clean the house. :) And then I am going to pick up a tiny ice cream cake and Schlotzskys sandwiches with jalapeno chips that he loves for dinner. He has a BIG presentation tomorrow morning and since he hasn't come home from work until almost 8 the last few days I know he doesn't want to go out to dinner. I can clean but I know I am not up for making dinner too. My body is doing way BETTER but not that great yet.
Problem is if I am not supposed to eat chocolate what kind of ice cream cake do I buy? My silly husband doesn't like mint, or cookie dough etc. He does like cookies and cream.....that has minimal chocolate. I hope Baskin Robbins has one. :) I can have red meat up to 3 times a week so I guess I will use tonight as one. I think I need a food diary. I didn't think I ate that much red meat but I eat a lot! I grew up in the wrong house to not eat red meat, we NEVER had a meal without meat. I like chicken but it definitely is not my first choice. I need delicious chicken recipes as it has to be my first choice!
No beef, no coffee, no chocolate, and no coke make for a very sad Kerrie! At least I should lose weight I would hope. :) Ok, so here is my cleaning list:
-Mop main floor, as in entry, dining and kitchen. There are salt stains from snow and shoes.
-Vacuum Whole house, stupid me gave the dogs a rope bone. We have strings everywhere.
-Make master bed.
-Wash full sized guest sheets and remake bed.
-Finish Laundry and put away.
-Dust house
-Quick wipe down of bathrooms, my AWESOME mom cleaned them last week for me while I was sick.
Then I need to go to the grocery store (I need a card) and Baskin Robbins for cake. Hopefully my energy will last to get all this done! Since he picked up the slack while I was sick I think a clean house is the best gift I can give.
