Twelve Years and Going Strong!!!

Well I just celebrated my anniversary of twelve years with my man on Sept. 20. I can't believe that it has been that long. Out of all the anniversaries that we have celebrated this one by far was my favorite. We started the morning off with homemade cinnamon rolls from Sugardaddy's in Brenham brought home to us by a very dear friend. Then I just took my time getting ready to go. I didn't do any housework or anything. We left the house all dressed up and headed for
Houston.

I had wanted to see the exhibit Secrets of the Silk Road at the HMNS.

Since we are members the price was right and it was so worth it. I just love all that history and I have always been enthralled with mummies.

This mummy above was actually beautiful, if you can say that about a mummy. You can tell that she was a beautiful woman. She had red tresses. She was so petite. Just breathtaking. I actually wanted to be an archaeologist when I was in the 5th grade until I realized that I wasn't going to be the next Indiana Jones. Love those movies. Anyways, the exhibit was just breath taking with how well preserved everything was. I really couldn't believe that I was looking at cloths and food from thousands of years ago. We had a great time there. Then after we left the museum we went to Damian's Italian restaurant. Let me just say that it is the next best thing to eating authentic Italian food. Well, I actually have never been to Italy to have tasted real authentic food but if I had then the food would taste like that. It was amazing. My palate is still singing its praises. If you live in Houston or in the vicinity then it is a must that you dine there.
