Road Trip!

Well, I had a really nice day today. Anna (my college roommate, and one of my best friends) is having a baby in March--and today was her baby shower. She lives in Alton, VA..which is a 4 hour trip each way....So I left this morning and headed down. I really enjoyed the road trip by myself. I could blast the radio and sing really loud. Of course, most of the drive is in the sticks...so the radio stations were mostly fuzzy gospel songs, or really twangy country music. Luckily I had Chad's mix to listen to :). So, I bee bopped my way down to South Boston listening to Taylor Swift, Kenny Chesney, Britney Spears, and some rapper ....I have no idea what he was singing about.
Anyway, I had a really nice visit with Chad's family, ate some lunch, and then went to the Shower. My gift to Anna's baby was the first blanket I ever crocheted. I took a picture of it before I wrapped it up :) I'm really proud of it..and almost didn't want to part with it. But I hope their little lovebug enjoys snuggling with it.


From what I hear, Chad had a pretty good day with the girls. He bought Hannah her first fish....3 guppies, and a male beta. Hannah was awake when I got home tonight and was just dying to show me her fish. The male beta is green and she named him Boots. The black guppy is Dora. And the orange and blue guppy have yet to be named....My money's on Swiper and Map, though :) She cracked me up..she said "Mommy, Boots and Dora are really nice, beautiful fish." I'll post pictures of the new pets tomorrow. Off to bed....
