Sorry about the downer post of a few days ago. That’s primarily why I haven’t been posting much because what I HAVE had to say is all along those lines—not so happy!<\/p>\n

Fortunately, I do have happier things to share.<\/p>\n

1.) We had our FOURTH wedding anniversary at the end of April! And Jared was sweet enough to “kidnap” me from work the next day for a nice weekend in the town of Fredericksburg, Tx.<\/p>\n

We spent a few nights in a cozy little cabin.<\/p>\n

\"Cat\u2019s \u00a0\u00a0 <\/a>\"Cat\u2019s \u00a0\u00a0 <\/a>\"Cat\u2019s<\/a><\/p>\n

We tried a few of the restaurants in town and walked around. We even went to a nearby state park, Enchanted Rock.<\/p>\n

\"Enchanted<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \"Enchanted<\/a><\/p>\n

It was okay, but we both agreed it’s probably more enchanting when there’s not been several months of drought interfering with the wildlife and greenery.:)<\/p>\n

It was nice to get away and not worry about all my worries for a few days.<\/p>\n

2.) Jared got a new toy. He’s pretty excited about it.<\/p>\n

\"Motorcycle\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Normally, this would be something to frown upon because it’s a dangerous sports bike that would get him into trouble. BUT for several reasons, this is okay with me. Jared is a believer in wearing full-gear. With the ridiculous gas prices, this is less of a gas hog than the truck. And most importantly, it makes Jared happy by satisfying that part of him that wants a little more adventure and it’s a new toy to modify.<\/p>\n

3.) It was my favorite guy’s birthday yesterday!!!<\/p>\n

\"Cards<\/a><\/p>\n

I made him a triple-chocolate layer cake all from scratch. I am pretty proud of myself.<\/p>\n

\"Cake\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Can you guess how old he is?<\/p>\n

\"Birthday<\/a><\/p>\n

Who couldn’t love this guy? Look at that incredibly good-looking face!!!<\/p>\n

So, despite the hardships of life lately, there’s been a few rays of sunshine.<\/p>\n

Ironically enough, Jared’s a part of all of them! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
