Anniversary Celebration!

If you know us really well, you know that Jeff and i are quite simple. We don't need fancy dinners to enjoy our anniversary, and we sure don't need long trips (at least not yet). So, instead of fancy-ness, we spent a day at the mall, seeing movies. We went to see The Proposal - with Sandra Bullock. A GREAT movie! I would recommend it highly!! And speaking of fancy trips, since seeing the movie and the scenery there, we'll be planning a trip to Alaska before. . . okay, honestly, once we retire, but i'd love to think it would happen sooner.
We also went to see The Hangover. Totally different theme from the first movie, but hilarious. I was asked before we went, if we liked "crude humor." You definitely have to like crude humor to enjoy this movie, but it was hilarious . . . and disgusting wrapped up into one!
After a day at the theater, we went to Third Coast Grille; Enjoyed some crab legs and fish! Then, we headed to Chateau Elan for the night! And, can i say here? If Chateau Elan ever decides to sell the beds they have in their hotel rooms, i will line up the night before to make sure i get one! That was the BEST night's sleep!! What a relaxing night! Thanks to Jeff for planning the whole thing!

A Creative Gift

Because Jeff is always as creative as he can be . . .

THIS was my anniversary gift! (Along with a night away from everyone in a week or so, for a lake-night getaway). Do you know why he gave me this book for our anniversary???

11th anniversary is the "steel" anniversary. Much better to get a book by Danielle Steel than to get a steel statue or something :-) And with my memory, i can read this over and over (because i never remember what books are about), so it will be the gift that will keep on giving!

I love you too, Jeff! Thanks for always being creative and fun and a great husband! I love you MORE!

Oh, the things i was doing this time 11 years ago! Hairdo's, fingernails, NOT talking to Jeff. I remember the excitement so clearly! It was a HOT June day. But beautiful! I'm still not sure why i planned a wedding for the month of June?? Ummm, maybe it was because i was such a conscientious employee (teacher at the time) and i wanted to not miss work...I think i vaguely remember that.
I do remember that i was sooooo excited to be marrying Jeff! And to this day, i am STILL excited that i DID marry him! What a wonderful gift to have him as a husband!
I love you, Jeff! HAPPY 11th ANNIVERSARY!
PS - Sure wish we had a trip to Grand Cayman planned, flying out tomorrow. You haven't planned any surprises have you?
