Something clever.
Tiff’s belated birthday present arrived yesterday afternoon and I’m totally envious. Yes, her birtday WAS back in May, but she has spent the last two-and-a-half months trying to find a work bag she liked. For the record, back then I took her out to dinner and an attempted shopping spree in which she didn’t find anything she wanted, so relax.
Tiffany and I traveled to Mount Vernon on Saturday to visit her dad’s side of the family. Unexpectedly, we ended up on a boat in the middle of Apple Valley Lake and I gotta say … it was nice.
I’ve never for an instant considered myself a boater, but after floating along with a boat drink while listening to good tunes and taking in the scenery provided by the expensive houses, I could get used to the life.
If there were any doubt as to who is the real man in our relationship, Tiffany mowed that down Friday while firing a 20-gauge shotgun at clay pigeons.
The trip was part of a team building exercise for her office. Meanwhile, I was editing text on a computer screen.
View the original pick after the jump:
The engagement party in February and attached wedding might seem like old news, but the big date is still over a year away. Lots going on behind the scenes.
Over the last few months we’ve booked the reception site and entertainment, taking care of the party side of the wedding first — we clearly have our priorities straight.
Moving on to one of the more specific details, we selected our cake chef yesterday.
Tiffany and I went to Easter service yesterday along with my uncle, aunt and two cousins. We hadn’t seen them in a little while so when they invited us over for church and brunch, we took them up on the deal.
Hanging with Tom, Tina, Abby and Ali was fun, as always. Picking on the girls and beating them at Nintendo Wii is enjoyable any day.
Because of the upcoming marriage, which is still 15 months away, Tiffany and I have been trying to attend church as often as possible. We have to show up enough to get them to wed us crazy kids. Or we can not go at all and pay them a $1,000 fee.
It turns out that public humiliation is only bad when you have enough energy to care.
Tiffany and I got together with members of Tiffany’s family to participate in the National Kidney Foundation’s Walk & Run Saturday morning at Polaris Fashion Place. We participated to honor the memory of Tiffany’s aunt Pattie, who passed away two years ago.
Tiffany, her mom and her aunt Becky decided to make T-Shirts for the event because, well, arts and crafts equal a fun Friday night for them. The guys of the group, Tiffany’s step dad Jeff, uncle Mark, uncle Jim, cousin Matt and brother Grant all bit the bullet and made their own shirts as well — each spending roughly 8 minutes writing “Team Pattie” in manly, thick block letters. Mark, to be exact, shortened “Team Pattie” to simply “TP” and the date.
