Oh, the things we do.......

So yesterday, I woke up at 4:30, went to the gym, came home, got the
kids ready for school, brought Cole, Gavin, and Scarlett to school,
then went to work where I was having to run back and forth to base to
troubleshoot various issues all day. I left work at 4:30 (keep in mind
that's 12 hours after I woke up) got home at 4:45, changed clothes and
left at 5:10 to go to Tori's practice. We practiced for about an hour
and a half. Pretty rough practice for me because I was the alltime
baserunner since we only had 9 girls at practice. So I ran the whole
time. After practice, Tori and I picked up some dinner and went home.
I ate dinner, then the fun started. -Quick backstory- Last Friday,
Rach came home with 4 Crate Myrtle (i have absolutely no idead how to
say or spell those words) trees that she got for free from work. I
unloaded them out of my truck, so now the only thing I know about
these trees is that they're heavy. So being the good husband that I
am, I went outside and started digging holes for the trees without any
complaint whatsoever.--Alright, maybe I threw a tantrum like a 4 year
old, but it was late and I was tired and those trees are big and
heavy. So Rach and I made a deal that I'd plant two tonight and two
tomorrow. At about 9:30, I couldn't see anymore, so Rach thoughtfully
moved her car to shine the headlights on my holes. She's so sweet. So
now it's 10:15, I'm watering these two giant trees I just finished
planting, Rach's car is dead, and my back hurts. And as bad as all
that sounds, and as little I care about trees, I'd do it all over
again for her. I love her that much. And I'll get to show her again
tomorrow.---Its just too bad I'm not allergic to trees.
