seven

This weekend Rob and I celebrated 7 years of marriage!  I feel so lucky to have spent the last seven years married to my best friend.  We have such a great time together.

We went out for a "memorable"dinner on Saturday night to celebrate.  It was great to spend time just the two of us.  We talked about our favorite moments together and started our "bucket list" for places we want to go and things we want to do.  It was a great night!

And the best part of our anniversary was our "gifts" to each other!  We bought a new screen door and backsplash for our kitchen.  Exciting, I know!  But to us, it really really is.  These are things we have wanted to do for 3 years, so we finally went out and did it!  Rob and I installed the screen door all by ourselves yesterday, that was quite an accomplishment.  We are having someone come help do our backsplash in the next few weeks. Then, Rob and I have chair rail to install and our 2011 winter projects are complete!!!

As nice as our time was together this weekend, the highlight of our weekend was definitely our family time with Lucy!  Lucy (and Aunt Katie) slept over on Friday night and we had a great night.  Then Saturday, we headed to Brookfield Zoo.  It was so much fun!
