Happy early anniversary to ourselves!

So Dave and I were going to spend a night at a swanky new hotel that opened up in Grapevine this year for our anniversary. We had it all planned....Dave was gonna take two days off, we'd have a whole weekend of celebration and fun. Well, one thing lead to another, and we have to cancel our reservation. So, rather then stress ourselves out with figuring out when we could reschedule our romantic weekend for two, we decided to spend the money we would have spent on something totally useless and ridiculous but a whole lot of fun. So this is what we came up with....
For those of you not familiar, Guitar Hero is....yes....a video game. But this is not your typical shoot-um-up-knock-um-down-beat-the-dragon video game. With Guitar Hero, you actually play classic rock songs with your cool little guitar like this one....

The notes are color coded on the screen and you strum the guitar while you press the notes on the neck of the guitar. Dave and I had played it several times before at friends homes, and yes, at church in the youth room. Currently we just have one guitar controller, but we have a second one on order so we can "rock out" together. Dave plays bass, I play lead guitar! In addition to this wonderful new way to have couple time, we are planning a wonderful dinner at our favorite special occasion restaurant, Simply Fondue, and Dave said I could get a massage and pedicure!
In other news....Dave and I are both sick as a dog (where did that expression come from anyway). For Dave, it is going on almost three weeks that he hasn't been able to shake a hacking cough and congestion. With me, you name it, I have it. So, to hopefully combat that problem, I have coined today Lysol Friday. Any surface that can be disinfected will be disinfected. Sheets are being washed in super hot water, toothbrushes are being changed, blankets washed, couch Febreezed (they make an antibacterial one now!). If there is a germ in my house, it has met its end today.

PS- Sorry for the shaky pictures....I can't seem to hold the camera still. Blame it on the stuffy nose.
