#11

I think we counted that we've celebrated our anniversary 6 times in person since Levi always seemed to be gone at that time of year! We've never made celebrations like that a big deal- birthdays, mother's/fathers day, anniversaries. It's just not something we've felt was necessary! But we always acknowledge and celebrate in our own simple way! We celebrated #11 a week early since we'd be at the farm for Cousin Camp. After church, we headed to Ted's Mexican Cafe and then went to see Dunkirk at the Cinetopia. Cinetopia was AMAZING!! I'd totally see more movies if I could sit in seats like that, although they come at a pretty penny, so maybe not!!  Either way, it was a nice evening out, just the two of us, enjoying each others company!!!  I don't care if we do anything special, I just want to do it with you!! I love you Levi!

9th Anniversary

If I had to count the amount of anniversary's Levi was home to celebrate, I think it would be maybe half. He just always seems to be gone around that time! But its okay, he always makes up for it in some way or another. And I'm not the type that needs to be showered with lavish gifts or dates or anything like that. We did get to do alot of special things on my trip to Virginia, so that pretty much made up for not celebrating all these years!! On our actual anniversary, my parents took me out to dinner and the boys gave me extra cuddly snuggles, all of which were exactly the kind of things I like!! Hopefully, from this point on, we will never have to be apart on another anniversary ever again!

 My mom had the boys pick up these flowers for me when they picked me up from the airport the day before, so they did double duty as anniversary flowers!! Wyatt wanted to get me tulips because he knows they're my favorite, but since they're out of season, he chose a rose because he thought it looked similar to a tulip. And Grant picked out the daisy because he liked it, so he was excited when I told him those were the flowers we had in our wedding!! They were so special!!

My cousin Courtney shared this picture with me on our anniversary and I had never seen it before! It was such a treat to see this!!!
