My anniversary present...

On Tuesday we will be 9 years married, not too shabby. We are celebrating with a stay-cation. My wonderful in-laws took the kids for the night. A whole night with nobody needing my help with getting a drink, going to the bathroom, or having a nightmare. I am totally torn between going to bed early and reveling in the fact that I won't wake up to 3 year old feet in my kidneys or perched on 6 inches of mattress while my 6 year old sprawls across my side of the bed, and staying up to hang out with my hubby knowing that we can sleep-in in the morning! Decisions, decisions....

I do have to show off what my sweet husband got for me!


It's just what I wanted! Seriously, I emailed him the link, emailed him a wish-list, and talked about it pretty constantly starting around last August... and he picked up on my subtle hints. :)


He did surprise me with this sweet message on the back. I love them too!

Thanks for being a great husband and father Brian. I love you and am ready to see what the next 9 years will bring us.

Happy 9 years

I am in love with that necklace. I've seen similar ones and love the subtlety of it all.

Also, I am loving YOUR subtle hints and pokes and suggestion as to what Brian could get you. Nice!

Oh, I would totally stay up late and sleep in. Yup. That's what you should do. Have fun!

I have had my eye on some of those charms myself, I think it's a winner. I won't use the word jealous because that would be coveting but I will say this... I will be glad when I have my own charm to show you! Happy Anniversary tommorow.

By the way, I LOVE the "too sleepy" story.

Whew! So glad you made it 9 years! The rest will be cake right?!

I love the necklace. I'm glad i'm not the only one who has to do not so subtle hints. :)
