2 years

Yesterday, 8.8.10, marked two years of marriage for us!

We celebrated on Saturday by having dinner, going to a movie, and having cheesecake for dessert to top it all off! 

Dinner was at a Chinese restaurant that some friends had told Justin about.

Here is what my fortune cookie said….  I think it’s pretty right on!

We saw Toy Story 3, and it was so good!!!  I almost cried towards the end.. seriously.

I think my favorite part of the night (besides being with my man) was the dessert. Anybody that knows me could probably guess that!  We had some new Reese’s Peanut Butter cheesecake at The Cheesecake Factory.  Yummm…  No pictures this time ‘cause we pretty much inhaled it.  :)

 

Then on our actual anniversary yesterday we went to church as usual.  But unexpectedly the sermon had to do with marriage and family, and we got to renew our wedding vows to each other at the end of the service!  It was such an awesome and on time thing that truly was a gift from God to us.  Loved it!

We didn’t buy gifts or cards this year.  I’m not sure we ever will.  I like that we just take the money we would spend on gifts and spend time together.  Anyway, instead of buying stuff we wrote each other letters.  It’s so sweet to read my hubby’s heartfelt words about his love for me and expectations for our future.  <3  I am so blessed and do not take it for granted!

I wouldn’t say that this past year has been easy.  But it was easier than the first.  I think we have both grown and changed in many ways in the last year.  We are beginning to figure each other out.  I really believe that this year coming up will be a great one for us.  I can’t wait to see it all unfold with Justin by my side.  I love that boy.
