a few vacation days

march 12, 13 & 14 No work - all play!

Day 1 - visited a familiar landmark to all Birminghamians. not even going to say what, but you will recognize his lovely features in the pics.

also worked in a visit to the Botanical Gardens. plan was to find a lovely swing and just swing, look at the sky and relax. of course we had to walk to the Japanese Garden area to see if the cherry trees were in bloom (they were not). we did find a lovely swing which i was truly enjoying until i looked at DH's face and realized he was bored silly. snapped a few pics of some tulips and left.

Day 2 - movie day - i had picked out 10 movies that are currently out that i thought we should see. DH picked a dud..."10,000 B.C.". it was ok but not a must-see.

Day 3 - lovely thunderstorms abounded so i got to pick the movie for the day. i chose "Spiderwick Chronicles". we both agreed that this one was much better than Tuesday's flick. (popcorn almost got us though...don't know how many points movie popcorn is, but we were strong and did not succomb to that lovely smell. it usually smells better than it tastes though.)

today is Saturday and i'm feeling like the vacation is over. still a little rainy out so i think i'll attempt to do a little cleaning today.
