he never went trick-or-treating as a child. He was so excited the second year of living in our first house (worked first year)......he had his bowl of candy waiting to hand out the goodies. It must have wore off that year though, as I believe to date he has only taken the kids (actually kid) around once and he was late and had to wake up Andrew to do it.

This list is kinda long with this husband. They were not revelations as innocuous as if he'd never been to a zoo.

We have never been to the zoo together, since local zoos... what is the word I am looking for... blow.

Yet we have both been to the zoo.

Last thing I learned about her is that she has a crack-like addiction to flea markets.

Luckily, so does her sister, so I have yet to go to one of those atrocities.

Believe me, with this one I get something new about once a week!

I am not enthralled by zoos either. In fact, they depress me. I always want to let the animals out.

We'll be firing up the grill at my 'rents house sometime in July.
If you're serious about waiting for an invite, consider it done.

Interested?
