All About our 53rd Wedding Anniversary!!!

Well we had a fun day today..rather different for a anniversary celebration but lots of fun... Fred had been looking online and seen that the Toledo Zoo was having Seniors days all of September and on Tuesdays it was free parking and free admission..so he said do you want to go?? We haven't been down there for years so we both thought..why not??

Well.....it became quite an outing!!

They were also doing health checks, and flu shots and while we knew that was going on we didn't really plan to take part.
When we got there around 1:00 we went into the Arctic Encounter section that is relatively new and we hadn't seen it..was really neat and when we walked through this one area here was one of the pharmacists that we know real well from our Kroger store..his wife actually worked for me at the center when she was in college and we went to their wedding...10 years ago..anyway he seen us and said oh here are 2 good ones for the flu shots!! (He actually gave us ours last year at the store) so we ended up getting our flu shots and had a good time laughing with him and the nurses...then on to the rest of the zoo.

It was around 90 degrees and extremely windy (if it hadn't been windy we probably wouldn't have stayed out in it) we did get pretty warm at times and when we did we would sit in the shade, have a drink and cool off..so all in all it was a fun day..we left there around 3:30 and came home and then later we went to Outback Steakhouse (we had gift cards and thought it was a smart thing to use them) and had a delicious steak supper..and when the waitress heard it was our anniversary we also got free carrot cake for dessert..so our whole day didn't cost us anything but the gas in the truck!! Oops..forgot we did 'buy' 2 cold drinks at the zoo!!

I also was spoiled by my hubby..he knows I really like Willow Tree angels and have around 25 of them..but I was really surprised when he gave me this one for our anniversary along with a beautiful card....

"Anniversary...love ever endures"
