Well, you all are about to get an eyeful about my 20th anniversary! Yes I know to some people, me included, that is a huge milestone. To others it is still a but a wrinkle of time. Twenty years to the same tall, dark(ish) and handsome man with the deep voice.
We celebrated by jumping in our Toyota with the functional gas pedal :) and drove into the sunset until we got to Williamsburg! Where we ate at our favorite seafood restaurant (The Whaling Co.) and stayed at our favorite Williamsburg hotel. Never mind that we have never stayed anywhere else before, this place is awesome and have employees that have been working there since well, at least since the last 2 years. They all remember faces too!
Anyhow, Saturday we got up and went to the National Pancake House.
This place I went to with a bit of trepidation. Last year we went there for breakfast and all of the employees seem to be senior citizens. Which is great, until you find out that your waitress is sweet on your husband. No kidding, this lady was all peaches and cream to him, even gave him seconds for free, but practically threw my plate across the table at me and practically grunted out anything said to me. Naturally, he didn't notice anything of the sort but what would I benefit from making up the story about the 70 yo Lolita? Lol, but she wasn't there this weekend. Instead we really did have a great waitress, and she made us both laugh. If you are in the area I highly recommend this place. It is a small little restaurant and the wait staff all seem to have a thing for the big tall guys with deep voices, or maybe just my man!
So what did we do all weekend? We drove around town just looking for stuff to do. If it looked interesting we stopped and did the touristy thing. If not we just drove past. All of the excitement happened on Saturday night. We got back to the hotel and got settled in, the fire alarm went off! This is what happens when......................................
(hey get your minds out of the gutter)
a bunch of the teenage kids come to town for a soccer tournament and get bored in the middle of the night. lol. The sad thing about the whole scenario is I woke up and walked to the window to see if there were firetrucks or at least people standing outside. Which there were not. So we called the front desk and they apologized but there was no fire, false alarm. What is sad about it? Well, our first instinct was not to flee but to call and see if the building was on fire.

Wow that seemed to be a very exciting 20 year anniversary. Also Congrats on making it 20 years most people never make it that far!!! I hear you on the whole waitress thing I have had that happen to me before and it is annoy but flattering at the same time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a tremendous milestone in your lives!!! Unfortunately, I don't think that people stay married long or even get married, these days! I am, alomost up there with you, at 18 years with my hubby! I get a kick out of people who ask me how long we have been together and then when I say I have 2 boys, they ask if he is the father of both of them. Of course, they are suprised when I say, Yes!!! It sounds like you had a wonderful weekend and I admire you all for "stickin with it!!!" Only 20+ to go, right?
