7 Year Itch???

Stu and I celebrated our 7 year anniversary today.  It was my turn to be in charge of the date.  I really wanted to go out to dinner without miss Hannah.  So I contacted Hannah's nursery leader at church to see if her 13 yr old daughter would be willing to babysit.  Janet (the mom) said that Julia (the 13 yr old) was going to be at her dads, but she would be willing to come over and watch her.  She even said to take our time so we got to go out for dinner AND a movie. We felt like we had been handed a winning lottery ticket.  I have been craving a Benihana type dinner so I found one at one of the casinos.  It was super fun to have a night out.  And then we saw "Saving Mr. Banks".  Super cute!
 Stu and I give each other the TRADITIONAL gifts for wedding anniversaries.  This year was copper or wool.  I got Stu a copper fire pit for outside and Stu got me 2 dozen roses (just because) made me breakfast and got me a wool cap with diamond earrings inside!!  I had asked for something 'sparkly' for Christmas and he surprised me with them for our anniversary!

Out on our date

Its been said that after 7 years one gets the 7 year itch.  Not sure what they could be taking about.  I get my itch scratched everyday by my marvelous husband. :)  It is amazing, simply amazing that 7 years have gone by.  Some days it does seem like we have been together FOREVER, but most times it seems like we just met and started to date.  I love this man so much and am so thankful by all he does for me and our family!  7 year itch..BLA  Here is to many many many more years to come.  I love you sweetie!!
