Today Mark and I have been married for a wonderful 2 years. It is surprising to me that it has been that long. It honestly feels like just yesterday. It has been a great 2 years. We decided that since it has been 2 years we would celebrate 2 times. So Mark was in charge of tonight, our actually anniversary.
First I received these beautiful flowers at my office.
Then we exchanged gifts. He got me a really pretty light pink pearl necklace. I gave him 12 months of dates.
I thought this would be a fun gift, and something different. I feel like even though our lives aren't super busy right now, we sometimes forget to have romantic or fun dates. We go out to eat, or we go to a movie, but it normally is about the same. I think this is going to be a year full of fun. Plus he has something to open every month. The gift that keeps on giving.
Then Mark took me to Eddie V's! Mark and I first went there last August for Restaurant week. We love fine dining and like to take that chance to find nice places that we really like. We enjoyed it so much and knew we wanted to go back. It was a nice surprise.
We had a great waiter and everyone was very nice, coming over to wish us a happy anniversary. They even gave us a wonderful dessert. We had Banana Foster Cake. It was amazing.
When we came home we lit our wedding candle.
My parents got us this candle for our wedding. It is a family tradition to get your wedding invitation turned into a candle. My parents have one as well and light their wedding candle every year on their anniversary. We hope to keep up the tradition.
Keep the spark alive! ;)
That concludes part 1 of our 2 year wedding anniversary. Come back this weekend to see part 2.
