Last Sunday (April 5, 2009), Jeremy and I took a day trip to St. Jacobs, Ontario. It is a small town about 90 minutes from here (it is very close to Kitchener-Waterloo!). It is a beautiful little town with lots of cool shops and a great Farmers Market (we didn't go there because it wasn't open!).

We took the day trip to celebrate our three year anniversary. Both of us had an awesome day! We made a stop at Picard's Peanuts to pick up a few treats (Amanda & Anderson got us hooked on chip nuts from there! Basically, peanuts with a potato shell. They are delicious!). Next we stopped in downtown St. Jacobs and spent a few hours there looking in the various shops. We went into an antique store where I found a 1960's souvenir plate from Florida for $4.00...so of course I picked it up!

Our favourite store, however, was Toy Soup. Yes, it was a toy store but they also had lots of awesome boards games. Jeremy and I ended up picking up a couple games. One is called "Pit" and is a card game that has become a favourite of ours (again, thanks to Amanda & Anderson). We also picked up another fast-moving card game called "Killer Bunnies". We haven't played it yet but I think it's going to be a lot of fun!

After finishing up in St. Jacobs, we went for dinner in Stratford at Bentley's. It was a great end to an awesome day!

Oh yeah, and pictures are posted in our Picasa photo album (just click on the "Our Photos" link on the left side of the screen. Feel free to check them out! :)
