Our 6 Year Anniversary

We celebrated six years of marriage on June 26th, exactly six years ago! It is amazing how many things have changed with our relationship since we got married. The jobs, moves, and children have been the biggest changes we have encountered. At the same time, we are sometimes still the same couple that dated in college - we just go to Chick Fil A and put kids to bed instead of staying out at fraternity parties.

We certainly had a wonderful weekend. Bo's parents came to watch the girls. We went to VA Beach and stayed at the oceanfront Hilton. We were on the Empyrian level and had an awesome room. We had access to a rooftop, overflowing pool that overlooked the ocean. There were waiters/waitresses serving our drinks. It was a beautiful place. We were not far from home and did not have to spend a lot of road time to feel like we were getting away.

Saturday night we went to dinner at our traditional anniversary restaurant, The Melting Pot. There, Bo surprised me with my new diamond wedding band. It is the same as my original, but it goes above the engagement ring. It definatley adds more sparkle to my hand! I was a very happy person!

We had a fabulous meal, went around the ocreanfront for awhile and called it a night. We spent some time at the pool Sunday morning before we left. It was a nice get away but always nice to come home. We missed our babies.

Later Sunday night both kids were screaming while getting dinner ready. Bo said, "want to go back to the Hilton?" Having time away from kids is healthy for a relationship but it is always nice to come home and know that we are all under the same roof again. I am so blessed with all that has happened in the past six years and grateful for a very loving husband.
