Five Years

Mike and I celebrated our 5th year anniversary today. During this week I have been surprising him with a favorite treat and card each day for FIVE days.

Day 1-Monday: Five reasons I love you card and favorite drink-cherry Dr. Pepper.

Day 2-Tuesday: Five things i have learned about you card and rice krispies treats.

Day 3-Wednesday: Five fun place we have been together card and ice cream.

Day 4-Thursday: Five fun activites we do together card and favorite candy bar.

Day 5 (July 1 OUR ANNIVERSARY)- Five things I love about us card-Five balloons and bike computer.

I had fun doing this for him and he had fun coming home each day and finding out what he was getting as his surprise. Even though it was just as simple as a Dr. Pepper or Candy bar, he got way excited and told me how much he appreciated it.

On our anniversary (Friday) he got up with the kids and let me sleep in (almost unheard of these days). A little while later he sent Tyson in to wake me up with one single rose. I got up and then he surprised me with about a dozen more roses. We then had to go run some errands and he took a little detour to FIVE places from memory lane.

1st stop: The first house we started our marriage in.

2nd stop: The place where he told me he loved me for the first time.

3rd stop: The apartment where I lived at and that we met for the first time at.

4th stop: The first place that we kissed.

5th stop: The house that we he proposed to me at.

At each stop he handed me rose. I thought this was so sweet that he would do this for me.

That night we dropped the kids off at my sisters house and Mike and I went to dinner at Carabbas and then went and saw an Owlz game. It was a fun day and night (especially without the kids)

Thanks Mike for an amazing five years and many more to come. I can't wait to see what the future holds for us and our family.I love you.
