Happy Two Year Anniversary!

I cannot believe it’s already been two years. The time has just flown by.

Yesterday was officially two years since Mikey and I said “I do,” and exactly six years to the day of our first date. Before I met Mikey, I hadn’t dated anyone for longer than about a year and a half, and after six years I love him even more than the first time I said it.

 

            We went all out last year to commemorate our first anniversary. We drove to Wilmington for the weekend and stayed the first night at the Blockade Runner, a really nice hotel on Wrightsville Beach. It was an amazing night. We drove to the Oceanic and had a romantic dinner overlooking the coastline and had several drinks. We ended the night with a moonlit walk, laughing together and having a blast. Then we went back up to our room, which was gorgeous and decorated all in white, and had a kind of balcony and this huge king size canopy bed.

            The next day we had plans to stay the night at this beautiful historic bed and breakfast in downtown Wilmington.  We spent the day on the beach. We ended up getting MASSIVELY burnt. I mean, neither of us can remember a time when we hurt so bad from a day in the sun. Imagine trying to enjoy a romantic night in a fancy bed and breakfast and hurting so bad. Both of us spent the night whining, slathered in aloe gel and trying not to move. You can imagine nothing romantic happened that night. We still laugh about it.

 

This year, we decided to go a little more low-key. We figured that our real anniversary present will be delivered really  soon, within the next couple of weeks, packaged cozily in pink blankets, complete with tiny fingers and toes. J

We celebrated this past Saturday by dressing up a little bit and doing dinner and a movie. We saw the new Terminator movie (Awesome.) and had dinner at an Italian restaurant.

I received a bouquet of flowers yesterday at work, which made my day. The card read simply, “You are living proof that dreams come true.” Mikey picked a bouquet of purple and lavender wildflowers, which is so appropriate since Avery’s room is done in shades of purple.

 

Every day that goes by I’m more and more in love with him, more and more completely convinced I made the right choice two years ago. I’m truly blessed to share this crazy, wonderful life with such a wonderful person.

 

I love you Boo!!!! Happy 2 Year anniversary!!!
