12 Years


Yesterday was our 12th wedding anniversary. Wow. It has just flown by. Each year gets better and better...really.

I woke up this morning to breakfast in bed, made by Hunter and Logan. My sister Shauna had called and left a message our machine wishing us a Happy Anniversary, he had heard it and got busy making us breakfast. So sweet. We EACH got 3 pieces of toast a tall glass of milk and 2 sugar cookies.

I planned a romantic evening at home and set up a small table for two with candles and fancy plates. Once the kids saw the set up...

Logan asked why there were only 2 chairs and where were the rest?

Jessica said in a sing song voice and a squeal, "Ooo! Are you romancing?!?"

Hunter barely noticed.
.
Camilla planned a sleepover at her house so that we could have our dinner. What a sweetheart...except Jess has had a tough time with sleepover anxiety and we didn't want to push her in this sensitive subject. So we had a wonderful dinner for three. No worries, it was a wonderful night nevertheless.
I got Matt a special grapefruit tree to celebrate our happy 12. It even has 3 large grapefruits on it! He was tickled by his new tree.
