Actually the celebration part is a pretty big deal for us. This is the first year that a move or a new baby hasn't made it impossible to celebrate. So, for the first time since we "tied the knot", we did in fact celebrate, with food of course.
Kevin's parents were in town that weekend and watched the boys so we were able to go for a kid-free dinner. It was delicious, we have both become lovers of food and we LOVE places that use fresh ingredients. This particular wood grill burger place is known for its unique burgers and shakes. Kevin got an amazing dulce de leche+citrus shake and I got a s'more+oreo shake. (course, my favorite shake is their EVOO+granola shake. (evoo=extra virgin olive oil) Sounds a bit weird but it's delicious. The truffle+parmesan fries were another favorite. Anyway...enough about the food. :) I was reminded how good it is just to be together, alone, so we can have a real conversation.
Sometimes, in the day to day grind, I can kind of forget that I'm married to the best friend I've ever had, that our conversations about everything and nothing are my favorite and that we've become so much happier since we met and married. We've both changed and assimilated in a lot of ways since we got married and I'm so glad for it. Kevin has introduced me to more things than I can count and vice versa, we are different now in the best ways.
I love thinking about how special our wedding day was, we look so little, but I love the "us" we are so much more now, if that even makes sense. I could be real mushy and sentimental but I'll keep that jazz to myself. I'll just say that I am so, so grateful that I got Kevin to be my partner in crime. He always says we're going to go out together in a blaze of glory, I really hope it's not that dramatic but I wouldn't say no to heading into the next life together. (after lots of years of adventures here, just to be clear) So, here's to actual anniversary celebrations for lots and lots of years to come.
