I'm supposed to type "I can't believe it's been one year since we got married!"...However, I'd like to mix things up a bit and say, I can't believe it's been five years since I first met the most incredible person in my life, my love, my confidant and best friend...my husband. He makes me realize everyday that love truly is a gift...it's sending an "I love you" text, even though you saw that person five minutes before, it's a night at Flashback's or The Shack...and holding no judgement toward anyone :), it's countless nights spent listening to music in the truck, or a trip to Buc-ees for Coke and Dr. Pepper Icees! It's about being with someone who wants to go through life with you, experiencing not only the happiest of times, but the struggles as well...just because they know they'll be able to conquer anything with you by their side.I found this picture of us on our first date, March 2005 :)
I baked him a chocolate cake to celebrate our 1 year...and it was wonderful, if I do say so myself!
And he took me to San Antonio for the weekend...we stayed at Hotel Valencia (gorgeous and fancy) and I was excited to be in room 910...you know the whole" lucky number 8" thing :)
We had a fabulous dinner at "our" restaurant, The Palm...Chad had the NY strip and I had lamb chops, and of course we shared a piece of the infamous 6 layer chocolate cake! For the past 3 years we've eaten at The Palm on our anniversary...so it looks to be the spot for the next 50+ years!
Stay tuned for a post on Winston's weekend with grandparents G&W!
