another week has come and gone

There still isn't much going on here... Only a couple more weeks of work and then I am finally free of that place! I love some of my employees, but the stress of management change is really taking its toll on me. That and I'm pregnant and beginning to get very impatient with stupid people, who for some reason love to visit me. :/ And I'm on my feet most of my shift, counting down the hours until I can go home and nap. Its just not something I enjoy doing anymore.

I crocheted a baby cocoon and hammock for some newborn photos, I'm pretty dang excited with them. Seriously, they look great. I'm even thinking about crocheting some up and selling them... I'll have a lot of free time between now and when the Baby arrives so something that can fill my time AND make money is a good deal. :)

Matthew and I had a nice anniversary. We spent Saturday night at a hotel in Hill City, and the luxury of cable was enough to satisfy us both for some time. :) Then Sunday we went for a nice, scenic drive, and walked around Reptile Gardens. It sounds nerdy, but it was actually really fun! We got to see a snake show AND a crocodile show. You should've seen the guy handling the King Cobra, it was so entertaining. They don't take out the venom or power to kill, so knowing that the man could've been bit and rushed to the hospital was enough to put me on the edge of my seat. Anyway, it was really cool and I hope when my family comes up that we can take them, because it really is worth it. Plus, an alligator snapped at one of the handlers, and that's something that everyone should see firsthand.

That night we went to Firehouse Brewing Company for dinner-by far the best food in town. I just love that place. Plus, free refills on locally-brewed root beer. Who can beat that? Yummm.

We've finally made plans to go home at the end of July/beginning of August. Matthew can't get the time off for us to go up to Flathead lake with his family. We were pretty bummed, but at least we'll still be able to see a lot of family and friends before the summer is over.

We're also trying to plan a trip to the Mall of America over the 4th of July weekend. We would have gone for our anniversary, but Matthew couldn't get the time off. :( Its ok though, I'm going to save up money so I can actually shop (since I won't be able to ride the roller coasters). I'm so excited; we've never seen that part of the country and it would be nice to go on some sort of mini-trip before the Baby arrives.

Well, I'm off to look at hotel prices and find a list of things to pack for a hospital bag...
