5 Years

Tomorrow is our five year wedding anniversary. What's funny is that up until yesterday, Stephen was absolutely convinced it was our sixth. He apparently told my parents that, too, but they didn't have the heart to correct him.

They do say time flies when you're having fun.

We're on a budget this year always, so our plans to celebrate are anything but lavish. And we're totally cool with that. My parents will babysit Ada while we cash in on one of the Restaurant.com gift certificates we bought for several of our favorite local eateries. Either Thai or Indian.

Handmade gifts are to-be posted because I don't want to give away the surprise.

If you're interested, here's where we got engaged, our third anniversary, our fourth anniversary, as well as when I tried on my wedding dress again (plus an alcohol-infused fudge recipe).


We've also decided that since Ada is now part our union, we'll spring for our family membership to the local zoo and kid's museum early. (Initially we were going to get one for her birthday in November -- but with Stephen going back to work, we could really use an extra place to go during the days.) Ada and I have been there a couple times, but we're excited to check it out with daddy!

So, that's what we're doing with our holiday weekend. What are your plans?
