5 by 5 and family

"5 by 5" a quote by Faith from Buffy to signify everything being alright. So it would seem me and Cherry have been together now for 5 months. To mark this event I got off work as early as I could and took this precious flame of mine to Topeka to get Red Lobster knowing her love for sea food. The trip was a blast loads of laughing and loud singing. The food was wonderful I could barely finish, we had wine and great service from a wonderful waitress. While I didn't get her roses which I have been doing figured I would changer things up nothing is romantic about being predictable. We got back and both being super tired from the large meal and trip took a bit of a nap ;) Then off to my friend Keegan's B-day party which felt odd. Something was just off about the ella house so we didn't stay too long. Plus we had to get up for yet another road trip.

We were up pretty early so we could make a lunch date with my family in Salina. Which turned out to be quite an even as my uncle Lester showed up... my fathers brother whom looks like a carbon copy except his mustache is all curly and long. His sister Carolin and his mom, my grandma Doris. My twin brothers and one of their GF's showed up with the usual antics lol. And my brother Aaron and his wife came for lunch. We had a very excitable waitress at the Hut and she was worthy of a great tip just for being sociable Then we went to a park and me and Cherry swung on the swings... They really should come up with a different word for what you do on swings. Anyway we said our goodbyes to Aaron and Priss and went on to a play called "The Quilters" Which i must admit was 100X better than I could have assumed it to be. I laughed, I felt comfortable and at home, I felt awkward and I cried. It was everything you could want in a play. Cherry said she enjoyed it allot as well. It really got me interested in quilting I think I may start soon. My Gran and Carolin are both master quilters. After that we went to Dairy Queen where I got to have a wonderful conversation with my Grandma a moment I will cherish for the rest of my life. I am also super excited at how fast my family has just adopted Cherry into the fold. They love her and how could you not.

In other news I started training to be a manager at Carlos O Kellys. Figured I pretty much do all that kind of stuff already minus the paperwork. Might as well get paid for it. I won't even ask for a raise I just want what people are getting paid to start their plus the raises I have gotten so far. Seems fair to me. That would raise my wage by 2 dollars but at least I would feel like I'm actually getting paid to supervise there.

Lastly images in this instalment of the blog are from top to bottom... Final Fantasy 7, A Character from a friends creation, and Electra.
Hope you love them :D

Once again i Love you Cherry :D
