The Honeymoon is Over

Recently, Joe and I celebrated our anniversary. Twelve whole years of marriage. That makes me feel really old until I remember I was a child bride.

So how did we celebrate such a big anniversary? I spent the morning doing classwork. Then I showered and got all pretty so I could leave and go have lunch with an online friend (our first "for realz" meeting, more on that in another post). When I came home, Joe was nowhere to be found. Where had he gone? Out to pick up some awesome anniversary surprise for me? Nope. He was hunting for a replacement cat toy for Tonya since Rusty destroyed hers (more on THAT in another post as well). How romantic!

Joe was unsuccessful at finding a replacement kitty toy for Tonya but he did bring me flowers and a card. Then we went out for dinner at our favorite Mexican restaurant before settling in with a few episodes of Arrested Development. Maybe the honeymoon is over but I'd say married life is just fine.

Happy Anniversary, Joe!

  6. Congratulations! That actually sounds like a really nice anniversary.

    At first I thought it said he'd gone shopping for a replacement cat.
