We celebrated Cason's 27th birthday on the 14th. We did just what he wanted: He and I went to dinner and a movie while lilli played at grandma and grandpa's house, and then we all had some ice cream cake from dairy queen. I love how easy his birthday's are! It doesn't take much to make him happy!
5 days later, was our 5th anniversary! Again, we kept it pretty low key. We had lunch as a family, did some shopping, and then dropped Lilli off at my parent's house so we could go to the Cheesecake Factory. We had planned on doing something a little more elaborate, but we had to make a couple of big purchases earlier in the month, so it didn't work out. It's ok though. I think we both needed a relaxing day!
A lot of our time has been spent fixing up our apartment. I've had a "honey-do list" since the day we moved it (almost 3 years ago), and pretty much none of it was done, but something finally clicked in Cason's head, and we got going. We cleaned out all of our closets, started work on cleaning out our garage, hung curtains, and rearranged our bedroom. The biggest improvement, was that we bought a new couch! We had our old one for less than 2 years, and it had completely fallen apart. Furniture Row swindled us, and we will never shop there again! We did our research this time and bought one from Costco...our fingers are crossed that it will last us!!
I struggled with a lot of health problems in the month of September (or should I say every month this year?). Anyway, we think we've finally figured out what's wrong, and hopefully I'm on the road to recovery. I couldn't get in to see the doctor, but I've been able to feel at least marginally better by changing my diet. I've cut out dairy which has been HARD. I don't think I knew how dependent I was to it, especially the milk! I miss it so much!
