Sam & Ashley Date Day!! :)

I have been cooped up in the house for over a week now, because I had surgery, and really really wanted to get out of the house today. So Sam asked if I wanted to go to the zoo. So it turned out to be a fun little day today with my hunny. We went to the Alexandria Zoo, then went to TCBY for some frozen yogurt, and then back to the house for some R&R listening to a Louis L'amour dramatized audio book, and then Sam took me to Robbie G's for some crawfish and catfish, which I probably shouldn't have been eating but they were soooo good :) yum! And then we just rode around Alexandria for a little bit looking at some of the Big houses that they had out there. It was fun, and now we are at home relaxing and I'm updating the blog. I got a few pictures from today. So I thought I would share. It's the first time we really have had to spend together because we've been super busy, and I've been so sick. He's so sweet!
Ready to eat some crawfish! They are still pretty expensive right now, so we are going to have to wait until they go down in price to do this again, but they were soo good! :)


Mmmmm, he can put down some serious mudbugs...not bad for a Carolina Boy! :)

It was just good to get out of the house for a little while! And I probably really needed the excercise.

"And all the monkeys aren't in a zoo...everyday you meet quite a few..."

White tiger thought it was a nice day for a nap....Sam thought so too when we got home..lol

The cougars were cool.

Cutest animal at the zoo :) lol

I think he wanted out. What a weasel!

They have LOTS of fish at the Alexandria Zoo...lol!

Us planning where we were going to start off...it's not a very big zoo, but it was such a beautiful day so we couldn't pass it up, and Sam had never been before.

He's so cute !

Here are a few pictures from our night! It was so much fun. We played the "Newlywed Game" that we made up and had some funny answers. Josh and Danielle were the victors for the evening and won the prize box of chocolates in a heart shaped box.

The hotel we stayed at was the hotel where JFK stayed the night before he was killed. It was a very nice hotel, and the stay was very nice. Ft. Worth's downtown was one of the nicest I think I have ever been to. We took the kids to the grapevine mills mall on our way home Saturday...they were so worn out, after staying up until 2 am the night before @ the lock-in, but they were real troopers...lol :) Oh and you'll notice we all have starbucks cups in our hands...there was one in the hotel it was great. We don't have one here...well not one that doesn't happen to be in a grocery store, so it was a nice change for a few days.
