Crazy weekend of tired but at least that is done....

The last few weeks have been just crazy with all of the SCA stuff with scrolls and events and seneschal fu. I've been taking this week after Dragon's Horde to just chill. I've done laundry, had an awesome time decompressing with the Southern Scriptorium and I've been working on a blanket for Raylee and Craven. I hope to finish that up this weekend so I can start other things. I did manage to cast on a new pair of socks and am slowly knitting on them.

Benton spent most of Saturday playing swords with Christopher (Odde and Alison's Eldest) and I got video of a bit of it which is really cute.



Much thanks to Laura for watching him in the evening so mel and I could go to the feast without a cranky, no nap, toddler. He was very tuckered when we got home after having played swords almost the entire day and then running around for the last few hours. Sunday I got some pictures of Thyra's Pelican Ceremony, had the southern crusades meeting and then I judged entries in the Twin Moons A&S Championship and handled other seneschal stuff. I basically didn't really get to see anyone or any of the fighting all day. I guess the dragon fights were brutal and the kid's fights were awesome. Benton tried to run out with mel's sword and fight the dragon. Luckily Ari caught him before he got under the eric ropes.

Got home and got the boy bathed and fed and in bed and mel and I enjoyed a very autumnal dinner of sausage with rhutabega, sweet potatoe and spices. So good.

I've still been hitting the gym hard and my body is telling me in all sorts of annoying ways. Very sore most of the time now but my running is getting faster. So things are going slowly on the improvement to me parts but I just need to not get frustrated at not seeing real results for sometime. I'm making the effort to get to the gym, I'm not shirking the weights/cardio and this just takes time.

Today is Mel and I's 9 year wedding anniversary.
My photos have migrated and here is the album from many different folks of the wedding.

It does not seem like 9 years ago. It really doesn't. Course its been nine years of marriage and 16 years we've been together. Crazy. So much has happened since then and a good chunk of that has been good.

Happy anniversary! That was indeed a wonderful day and we still have that picture of us. (Although I have thankfully ditched the sunglasses and haircut).
