Spencer and I have really been wanting to go the rec center in Gilbert to play walleyball! We love playing and never really do any physical activity anymore. We have been wanting to go for weeks and have not been able to have anybody watch Brynlee. It just kept falling through. Well, Sunday I was reminded that Spencer has a cousin who is a senior in high school who loves to babysit and basically begged me to babysit! SWEET!! I always forget that she is available! We made the plan for Tuesday and got really excited! It was finally going to happen. Madison comes over and we get all dressed in our walleyball finest! We get to the rec center, walk in, tell the lady we want to play, and she says they don't have any rooms available until after 8....it was 6:45! We couldn't wait that long and didn't want to be out much later than 8:30 anyways so we left. We were seriously so bummed. We decided to just go walk around Superstition mall. We never have the chance to just walk around and browse. We stopped back home, I changed into my cute clothes, and we headed to the mall. It was actually so much fun! We looked at T.J. Maxx, sniffed every candle in Bath and Body Works and even ended up getting two things on sale so we only spend $7! That's unheard of. Then we went and walked around Icing (I know, my hubby is the best!) and just laughed and joked together. We got to walk around holding hands and acting like a real couple! :)
On our way out we stopped back and felt some blankets at T.J. Maxx and got a cheap hamper for our bathroom. We decided we weren't quite ready to go home yet so we stopped and ate ice cream cones at McDonalds and 'people watched'. I love that me and Spencer are actually friends. We seriously just walked around the mall and had the best time! I am so glad we got to go on a date together AND we get to go tomorrow night to the rec center and we are calling to reserve a room! Whitley and Nick agreed to watch Brynlee for us since it's right by their house. They rock!
One other crazy thing from that night. The next morning I was making sure that Spencer was ready to leave for work by going through the checklist. Phone: check. Keys: check. Heart Medicine: check. But then Spencer told me that this morning he realized that he hadn't taken his heart medicine the day before. He felt kind of funny he said but wasn't quite sure why. It actually ended up being a huge blessing in disguise because if we would have been able to play, he probably would have had an episode and it would have really put a downer on our night.
Sometimes the best plans fall through, and you end up doing something BETTER!
