Next Monday, Hubs and I will celebrate two whole years of marriage. We decided way back when we were new at this married gig that we'd treat November 7 like a family holiday, which basically means we take the day off work and do whatever we want. This year, it's shaping up to look a lot like this:
Best day of the ye-ar!
Over our long weekend, we're hitting up a preview of a local cheese shop (also, I believe Des Moines' first cheese shop and a place I plan on frequenting like all the damn time), having a game night at a friend's place, getting massages (treat yo self!), having fires, possibly reupholstering a tiny bench (because nothing says romance in this house quite like some primer and a staple gun) and capping the whole extravaganza off with dinner at the best (also, only!) French restaurant in Windsor Heights.
This family holiday is all about celebrating the ups and being grateful we were there for each other in the downs of the past two years and looking forward to a very upp-y third year of rocking at life as husband and wife.
So, Hubs: here's to us! And to many, many more happy years. May they be filled with love, joy, gratitude, and like everything else good in this world, cheese.
Cheers!
Congrats! Hope you have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to treat your anniversary like a holiday and spend the time together doing anything you like! I treat my birthday the same way, always take it off work and do at least one nice thing for myself- on my big 40 next year I am going to do 40 random acts of kindness!
ReplyDeleteHope, you have enjoyed the trip.
