12 Years

Sunday, July 8 was our 12 year wedding anniversary.  It's funny, I remember our wedding day like it was yesterday.  It was so perfect and wonderful, and I married my true love and best friend.  Jason is an amazing husband and father and I truly love him more than I ever have.  Our love continues to grow and just seems to get better every year.  Here's a picture from our wedding day, and yes, I took a picture of a picture. Tacky, I know.... I carry this in my wallet and all of our pictures are at my parent's house.  So, it's all I had!

And here we are, 12 years later.  

It's not a great picture. I took it myself.  The restaurant owner took a few of us, but they were all blurry.
 
We hired a sitter Sunday evening and drove to Hill City for a date.  We were planning on eating at the Alpine Inn.  It's a wonderful restaurant that only serves one meal, STEAK.  You order a small or a large, and it comes with a baked potato, iceberg wedge salad with homemade ranch, and garlic bread.  However, we forgot to check on their times, and sure enough, they are closed on Sundays.  Jason said we will come back on another date.
So we headed to the Desperado down the street and it was really good.  Here is my meal:

 I was already in the mood for steak, so that's what I got.  Jason got a buffalo bacon-wrapped steak and he really enjoyed it.  
Then we headed to the Pie shop for some dessert.

Mine was Peanut Butter with chocolate syrup (YUM) and Jason got the blueberry.  Delicious!  ( Can you tell I enjoy my food??)


On Tuesday, the girls and I headed into Rapid City for a few errands.  Of course, we had to go to Walmart to get a few things for our camping trip.
There is a Texas Roadhouse and we really wanted to eat there. But again, I should have checked the hours.  They are only open for dinner during the week. So we ended up with delicious burgers from Fuddrucker's.  

The girls have been enjoying swim lessons and today is the last one.  Since we are headed out to Yellowstone tomorrow, they will miss the last two lessons this week.  But, we are super excited about our 4 day trip.  

 My next post will have Yellowstone pictures and details I'm sure.
Until then, have a fabulous week!
