Six month anniversary

Last night, Zach and I celebrated being married for six months. Unfortunately he had to spend the day working, and had to work this morning at 8am so we couldn't be out too late, so I just planned a fun night for the two of us, something different from a regular night out. So after he got home from work, he got changed out of his work clothes and we headed out. We went out for supper first, I made him choose where. We went to Claywest in Bayers Lake (where Kokomos used to be). Neither of us liked Kokomo's so we were a little unsure about Claywest, but it is very nice on the inside, servers are friendly, food was excellent, though pricey. We had potato skins, bacon and cheese garlic fingers, and a southwest bbq chicken pizza. Unfortunately I never thought to take pictures,but it tasted excellent.



After dinner, we went to the mall to find one of those $4.00 photo booths (something that I have wanted to do with Zach since we started dating 4 1/2 years ago, so I decided it was finally time to do it. Once we had those done, the plan was to head down to Fairlanes Bowling (in the mall), play a round of bowling and some arcade games there. Well, it turned out, that the bowling alley was closed to the general public for Bowl For Kids Sake. So instead we headed to Bowlarama in the Village mall. Zach won. There was no arcade there, so we just went on to the next thing. We headed into Timberlea, grabbed some Tims and headed over to Claycafe. We couldn't decide what we wanted to paint, so we picked something for each other instead. Zach picked a monkey for me, and I picked a dragon for him. I managed to finish mine before it closed, but Zach will have to go back to finish his.
Once we left Claycafe, we went to Empire Theatres in Bayers Lake, just to play in the arcade. We had a competition to see who could win the most tickets, then combined them to win a prize. There wasn't much there to pick from at the time, so we decide to hold onto our tickets and come back later. Zach won the competition by 7 tickets. We headed home after the arcade, and moved all of our furniture aside and built a fort, and then I kicked his butt at Mario Party for the Wii.

It was an absolutely wonderful night. I think the best part was that Zach had no idea what was planned, so I kept him guessing all night. But it was wonderful, just to spend that time with my best friend, my husband. I think he'll be planning our one year anniversary. :)
