Michael and I celebrated our sixth year anniversary this weekend! Michael was so sweet to leave me clues to solve throughout the entire week! With me, if something requires solving, it is more fun! Perhaps that is why I’ve loved games my whole life! On Monday, he gave me a clue on parchment paper that he’d toasted to make it look old. On Tuesday, he emailed me a clue where to find flowers! On Wednesday, he gave me a clue–a phone number in code–to call Krista for Friday night date info, on Thursday he just made me wonder and ask where my clue was all day, and on Friday he made me a cryptogram telling me where to find my card! He put the card high up in the tree; so after I got off work, I’m sure the neighbors wondered why I was dancing and around the tree, broom in hand, batting at the limbs–Maybe they thought it was some type of ritual dance.
We went to see Rodgers & Hammerstein’s OKLAHOMA at a dinner theater over the river in Clarksville, IN! Michael and I had gone to another rendition of the musical while were dating. I lived in Oklahoma at the time, and he came to visit me during summer break. There, they have a permanent ampitheater for the musical, running every summer evening. So…we had seen another company do the play before, BUT this production, we agree was a favorite–done better than Oklahoma’s Oklahoma! The food was good, too, if you like down-home type cookin’.
In other random news, we found the cutest rabbit’s nest in our back yard! I’ve never see one before. I noticed a patch of fur and grass, and thought an animal of sorts had eaten a rabbit dinner there. If you touched it (in my case stepped on it), though, it moved from beneath! Michael pealed back the fur and grass to discover all the little bunnies. The picture doesn’t show all of the bunnies, but one little Peter Cottontail posed for the camera!–eyes are still closed! The mother conveniently positioned this nest 3 feet away from our newly planted garden! Uh Oh! Side note: After doing some Googling, I found out that mothers pull out their own hair to create the nest…how painful!
Happy Tuesday!
