Random things about the Peterson's...

1. Derek and I have been hooked on this card game called 'Nines'. It's so dang fun! Two of my older brothers introduced this game to us a while ago and we can't get enough of it. This past week and a half we've spent several nights playing on our bed right before we turn out the lights. Anyone who's up for a good time, let us know...we'll teach you and stay at your house playing until the wee hours of the morning! You'll like it too!



2. When Derek and I were dating we started this hand-squeezing thing . We would squeeze eachother's hands a certain amount of times and try to make the other person guess what we were "saying" with our squeeze... I know, so so cheesy! Anyway, we still continue to do it everytime we hold hands. Now we have our own secret hand-squeezing language!




3. Ever since Lincoln was born Derek has called him "the littlest bum". Kinda wierd, I know, and I couldn't figure out where he got that name or why he started calling him that. It wasn't until a few months ago that he let me in on his little secret. I was just going to explain what it meant, but as I'm typing this Derek says I can't blow Linc's secret identity. Some of you have already figured it out, but if you don't know where he got that name, you'll have to take it up with Derek. Sorry!

4. We do not like Cingular. We are seriously counting down the days until we are out of our contract...only 72 left! Sorry to all of you Cingular/AT&T lovers, but it has been nothing but trouble to us. We have gone through several phones, too expensive phone bills, lots of dropped calls, blah, blah, blah. We're thinking of either going back to Verizon, which we were on before, or to T-Mobile. What do you suggest?



5. We try to make it to California every year to see family and watch the Giants play. We LOVE San Francisco and Santa Rosa. We always get star treatment from Derek's Grandma's...they're amazing cooks. So the good food, mixed with a little golf, visiting, relaxing, shopping, baseball, Scrabble, and lots of laughs keep us dying to get back there. We've been 3 times since we were married and hope to be able to go back soon with Linc.



6. We really like Chinese food. We've actually become quite picky with our Chinese food selections. If we want inexpensive and fast we'll occasionally go to 'Panda', the next step up would be Pei Wei', a good and pretty nice place is 'Mandarin Palace', and if we want something divine and feel like spending a lot of money we'll hit up 'Asian Star'...the best! So all of you that love little cheap, hole-in-the wall Chinese places, we won't eat it with you...sorry!


I tag anyone who reads this!

Nines! Yipeeeee!

Cell phones in general suck - we have verizon and pay a lot so therefore, they suck.
