Happy 5th Anniversary to Us!

Well, yesterday, October 23 was our 5th Wedding Anniversary! We celebrated the day by going to work and Nate sent me a beautiful bouquet of roses to work too. They were pink and yellow roses. They were ABSOLUTELY beautiful! Once the work day was finally was over, we went to dinner at the new Elements restaurant here in town. There was a "Dine Around" special that I got from work so they were offering a 3 course dinner for 2 for $40. The food was great! I don't know if we'll go back any time soon (mainly d/t the price) but it was a very nice restaurant and just the ambiance inside made it very romantic. We enjoyed just spending our evening together. If we had our way, we would be going on a nice vacation (probably in December after finals) but because we can't afford it we are going to Wendover next month to see a show and gamble (with a very small limit of money mind you).

I find it a little ironic that it poured rain on our wedding day (and pretty much the whole month of October that year) and today I wake up, and it's raining. Interesting. And the one thing I find a little depressing is that 5 years ago today I was in sunny Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. I am so glad we took such a good honeymoon. We had so much fun and I was glad that I got to experience that with Nate. When we got married he had never been on a plane, been to Mexico or seen the Ocean. I showed him a lot very quickly and he loved it! My love for vacationing has worn off on him. He can't wait for our next adventure (and neither can I).

Anyway... I can't believe it's been 5 years already - but it's an amazing feeling. Nate and I have had some great times (and some not so great times) through out but he is an amazing husband. He is my best friend and I honestly don't know what I would do without him. He pushes me to be a better person and I can't thank him enough for it. LOVE YOU HONEY!
