Happy anniversary!

Eric and I celebrated our 19th wedding anniversary on September 2. And do you know how we celebrated?

We didn't.

September 2, 1995

Oh, don't look so disappointed; it's cool. One thing we didn't think about, all those years ago when we were young and foolish and still hopeful, is that when you get married over Labor Day weekend, you're pretty much guaranteed to celebrate your anniversary every year with the start of school.

And the start of school, you understand, means an End of Summer Celebration with the girls, who decided they wanted to go to a really yummy New York-style sub shop, and then get frozen yogurt. And that's what we did. And it was FANTASTIC. Our little family is just fun, that's why. We have a good time together.

So yeah, I had to make dinner on my anniversary, and mostly we just talked about Johanna's first day of fourth grade and Abby's high school registration extravaganza, but you know what? Still fantastic.

Hey, though, we do have a special date planned for next weekend. It's kind of between two (very nice) restaurants right now because I have gift certificates from that May Basket ordeal I won, and we're still trying to decide. It's not a bad dilemma, truth be told.

P.S. Love you, Eric. You make my heart sing.
