Well... Friday, March 2nd, we had a MAJOR wind storm come through and it ripped up our roof and part of our siding. A lot of people had damage to their houses from the storm and in the middle of the afternoon, we lost power.
We weren't sure if we were going to still be able to go to the show, but Laura (who was babysitting) assured us the girls could come to their house if we didn't get power back. Thankfully, by Saturday afternoon our power returned and Ben had contacted our insurance company and filed a claim about our damage.
So... Saturday, March 3rd, Ben and I were able to head over to the MGM at National Harbour for dinner, Jim Gaffigan, and a little bit of gambling and cocktails! :)
We grabbed some tex-mex and this is us waiting for our food.
A pre-dinner selfie on a date night!
My mom got us AMAZING seats!
No photos were allowed during the show, so I quickly took this one when we sat down.
Jim was HILARIOUS and we enjoyed his entire set.
Ben and I were laughing so hard, my face hurt when the show was over.
Ben took my picture by his poster. :)
After the show, we headed over to the casino.
This was Ben's first time at the MGM and we walked all around,
grabbed a cocktail, and checked out a few slots.
It was a wonderful night and a big THANK YOU go out to my Mom for the tickets and to Laura for keeping our kids- Thank you ladies!!!
Now some pictures of the damage:
That is our siding that is coming off.
About two minutes after this picture was taken, all of that stuff blew away.
Some of it landed on our deck, that giant piece ripped up our umbrella. :(
That's what it looks like now.
The siding blew all over our street and we grabbed it out of many neighbors yards.
The good news, our insurance is covering all the damages, repairs, and replacements!!
Happy Tuesday y'all!
