4 Years

Andrew is and always will be the fun one in our marriage. I think we are a good balance for each other. If it were up to me, we would always do chores and household work on weekends. If it were up to Andrew, we would go out multiple times, catch a few movies, and fit in as much fun as possible. We usually do a little bit of both.

Having said that, for our 4 year anniversary in December, I was fine just going to dinner or getting a pizza. Andrew had different ideas and wanted to do something extravagant claiming we never do anything for our anniversary. We decided to use the gift-card he got from his company for Christmas to go to "The Melting Pot." We had been once before, but not for the main course and we weren't paying.

This time, we went all in and got the full-on course including appetizers, drinks, entrees, and desserts. We enjoyed our time together and it was definitely memorable and something different than just going to Red Robin.

Here are a couple pictures to document our evening: (Andrew, proof that we DID do something for our anniversary in 2016. :)

This showed up on the screen while we were waiting to be seated.

This weekend I was having a hard time. (I blame pregnancy hormones and a difficult work week.) Andrew kept trying to suggest a variety of things we could do to try to cheer me up. Nothing sounded fun or even good to eat. This is rare for me. Luckily after a while Andrew convinced me that we should go out to lunch to cheer me up. He even suggested going to "In-N-Out" which says a lot because that isn't his favorite, but he knows that I like it. We went and it definitely improved my mood and Andrew even said it was better than he remembered. 

I'm so glad to be married to Andrew! He knows me well and knows what I need. He gives me something to look forward to after work every day and he makes the weekends fly by because I enjoy spending time with him so much. Here is to many more memorable anniversaries!
