37 months ago renae and i began dating. for our first date renae and i went with our friends eli and lori to the rain forest cafe, we then went to the build-a-bear workshop, and topped the evening of with some coldstone ice cream. well a lot of things have gone on since then and many other dates have happened. tonight renae and i returned to the rain forest cafe and had dinner, it was really enjoyable to go out an do something special just becuase we can.  the rain forest cafe we went to is located at downtown disney, about 3.5 miles from our house. after dinner we walked around for a little bit just enjoying each others company. now we are back hope and relaxing for a little bit before heading to bed.

Listening to music…

well right now i’m in the living room with renae listening to music and grading tests. i decided to take a break and write a post.  not really sure what i should tell you about but we’ll both see what comes out.

this last week renae has been sick, she went to the doctor on tuesday and he told her it was the beginning of strep, fortunately we caught it before it became much worse and he prescribed her some antibiotics which she has been taking.  she was doing much better then on friday she lost her voice.  she has rested it most of the weekend and still has almost no voice.  she is feeling a lot better but wishes she still had her voice with her.  i have looked all over at ‘lost and founds’ and am still unable to find her voice anywhere. if any of you know where we can rent a voice let me know, my friend jack used to have a few extra voices in his head, maybe he can spare one. okay now i’m just being silly.

wednesday renae and i will be driving to sacramento to participate in the GSACS teachers convention.  we will spend wednesday night with my parents then be in sacramento thursday and friday, after the convention we will spend the weekend in san francisco with my parents then on sunday drive back to so cal.

well that’s more than i thought i could come up with, so i hope you enjoyed it, let me know if you know where we can get renae a voice, thanks…

hold nothing back
