Ben's 1st Birthday-Eve

I decided I wanted to blog everyday this week. Let's hope I can keep it up! It might not be much but I'm going to try! Yesterday it snowed (as shown in the previous blog) and also rained, and then froze overnight. So because of this, most of the school districts were closed today... kind of a waste if you ask me because the roads really weren't bad. There were a FEW black ice patches, but not too bad. BUT... we do live in GA, and people just aren't used to it I guess. Ben was the first in his class to get to daycare too, and I'm thinking a lot of parents wont be here at work today.

We had a pretty good weekend. Friday night Ryan and I got to go on our first date in a while. We went and saw Slumdog Millionaire and ate lots of junky food at the theatre all for free! We had gift cards that we hadn't used yet that we got for gifts when Ben was born. I realized we'd been to the theater ONCE before Friday night since Ben was born! (By the way, excellent movie!) Then Saturday we went and looked at trying to downgrade in the car dept to try and save money on car payments... but they tried to gyp us over with not such a good deal- so we told them no thanks. Then that night Delinda came over and hung out with us. It was lots of fun too. She got the awesomeness of cuddle time with Ben for his night bottle. And got to see his cute little bootie while he was crawling around naked right before bath time! Yesterday we went to Church then cuddled a lot when we got home and tried to stay warm while it was snowing. Then we went over to the Terry's and had hamburgers and played Rock Band. It was lots of fun. I rocked out Tom Sawyer, crushcrushcrush, and Alive. I only ever sing, because I'm afraid I'm too uncoordinated to do anything else- especially the drumming!

Anyway, it was a good weekend. We're now preparing for Ben's birthday tomorrow and party this weekend. We take him to get his first haircut on Saturday too! He needs it really bad and I'm thinking he's going to be a lot blonder and so cute! His ends are dark from when he was born, but his roots are a lot lighter. So it should be interesting! I pray for the forecasted warm weather for Saturday so we can do the cake eating outside. I can't wait to see how messy he gets! I wish my family could be here- I miss them all very much!
