I remember my first Sunday as a married woman. They had all the new sisters get up and introduce themselves in relief society....and I remember marveling at the girls who said they had been married for two and three years. And here I am now, haha. Sure doesn't feel that long, it goes by pretty fast doesn't it? Especially when you add kids to the mix.
About a week ago, I reminded my husband that he had better do something extra special for our anniversary, and that he had to be super creative. Apparently he was already on top of it, and I had spoiled the surprise by asking what we were doing. Haha, hey I like to know what's going on! But I have to tell you, this is probably the sweetest, most amazing thing he has ever done.
As most of you know, I don't eat normally. Everything has to be blended down to practically nothing. One of the girls Nick works with waitresses at a Thai restaurant here in town, and he asked her if the owners there would be alright with blending me a dinner. It has been about 7 or 8 years since I have gone to a restaurant and eaten there, and I've always been sad that Nick and I can't go out to eat together. He wanted to make that happen for me.
The owners agreed. So tonight, we took my blender with us and went out to dinner. They were very nice and accommodating they took my blender into the kitchen and made my order. And it was PERFECT! The best tasting Thai soup I have ever had in my life. And I got to eat it right there at the table with Nick, no "can I get my order to go, please?" And all thanks to a wonderful, thoughtful husband. I mean, I am seriously impressed, and very thankful. That was one of the best experiences; I don't know if Nick realizes just how much that meant to me. It was something very special.
Then to top it off, we went and spent some time being silly at the Nicklecade, playing games, winning tickets and just enjoying each other's company. We haven't been able to go on a date like that in a long time, so it was a lot of fun for both of us. And last, we got some hot chocolate and wandered around Barnes & Noble looking at books. It was probably one of the most enjoyable nights or ouf married life. Sometimes the most simple gestures are the most rewarding.
Thank you for 4 amazing years Nick! It's been a lot of fun so far, and it's only going to get better, I know it. We're like a stinky old cheese babe, just getting riper with age!
And just for fun, here's a blast from the past!
(7 years ago!)
We look so young, it's nuts
