has it really been 5 years?!

on saturday, may 3, kevin and i celebrated our 5 year anniversary! we have actually been together for almost 10 years. crazy. our original plan for the day was to see iron man, then off to old sacramento. my mom was going to come over to watch kyri, but couldn't at the last minute, so my super-wonderful friends stepped in and made our date possible! kerri (micah and jacob's mommy) took kyri for the morning and she at lunch and took a nap over there. then rebecca (aaron and jonah's mommy) came and picked kyri up and took her to her house until we got home, at around 7:30. i love my friends! kyri feels so comfortable with them and did great, the entire day. she got to eat a yummy popsicle at kerri's house and got to get wet while washing josh and rebecca's cars. what a fun-filled day for kyri! it is such a blessing to have friends that take such good care of our daughter and allow us to go on fun dates together!


the first stop of our date was to see iron man. what a great movie! kevin and i both loved it and would recommend it to anyone. we drove down to old sacramento and had lunch at joe's crab shack. the food was yummy...i had a big salad with coconut shrimp on top and kevin had crab stuffed shrimp. we both love seafood so it was a perfect meal. we had to get a fun drink of course, so we split a strawberry swirl margarita. mmmm mmmm good! i haven't been to old sacramento in probably 10 years. it is right on the sacramento river and there are tons of little shops. we just walked around after lunch and enjoyed being outside. we bought some salt water taffy to treat our friends for watching kyri. it was such a relaxing date. we weren't on any time frame and knew we could get back whenever and kyri would be perfectly fine. those dates are the best...when you can just be at peace and enjoy being with your sweet husband. it was a spectacular way to celebrate our 5 year anniversary. i love getting away with kevin. he just makes me smile and fills my life with more joy than i could have ever imagined. i love him. and i can't wait to fall even more in love with him in the many more years to come!

when we got to josh and rebecca's, kyri ran to us and gave us big hugs! she had a super fun day with friends and mom and dad had a super fun date with each other! an all-around swell day for everyone!

You guys are amazing and truly, I owe my current life to you! If it wasn't for Kevin, I'd never have come out to meet Sarah and Jenni. If you both hadn't pressured me to come out that one Easter, I never would have fallen in love with Jenni and got married to her! I can't believe it's been 5 yrs for you too! And almost 10yrs this summer since you've known each other! Creeeaaaazy!
I love you two (three) and expect many more of these anniversary celebrations!
