Best Parts of my Third Anniversary
- The roses Brandon brought home for me.
- The text preceding Brandon's return from work that read "Be ready at 4:45. Wear something nice. No questions."
- Frantically trying on everything in my closet and actually finding something relatively cute that's not the only dress that fits me since I started nursing.
- Heading out to a nice steakhouse on the water overlooking the bay and getting a table right by the window before sunset.
- Brandon calling ahead to have a nice bottle of champagne waiting for us at the table when we arrived.
- Sipping champagne and planning our Europe trip for next October. (We're going to London, Edinburgh, and Paris -- mostly likely. More on this later!)
- Eating amazing steak with a great glass of wine and just enjoying the evening.
- The free Happy Anniversary dessert at the end when we were way too full to take more than a couple bites apiece.
The one bad part: When our neighbors called to say that the baby was screaming hysterically and would not eat or sleep and maybe we should come home now? Had to leave behind about 1/3 of the champagne, so tragic.
All in all, a wonderful anniversary dinner and a very nice surprise from my husband! (We'd originally planned a much more low-key, local dinner out using gift cards. This was much less budget-friendly but ten times more awesome.)
