Second Wedding Anniversary

August 12th was our second wedding anniversary. Because Nate was firing at the range that week (re:getting up at 3am!) we decided to have dinner and movie night at home. We also shared...
Flowers AND Fruit!
And a brand new video game, too!

There were two dozen red, white and pink roses along with a basket from Edible Arrangements! The roses were beautiful and smelled really good! The basket of fruit included pineapple cut in the shape of hearts and chocolate dipped strawberries! A very nice snack while we enjoyed our anniversary movie "date".
For our meal, we had shrimp cocktail and Nate's favorite Greek Chicken with rice and broccoli. An easy and tasty meal!

Of course, no family event would be complete without our animals! Here are Bob and Taz taken WHILE we were eating our anniversary dinner. Silly animals!
Our second year together was really only our first whole year "together" and even that was interrupted by three out-of-state exercises and a two-month deployment to Africa! It's been a long road but there is no one else in the world we would rather share it with than each other!

Here's to another great year and the many amazing things we have yet to share together!

Another Call & Flowers

I just hung up the phone with Nate! He is out in the desert. WAY OUT! Today's temperature was 132degrees!! Yes, that's no typo - 132 degrees! They have a water shortage and the temperature inside the house is 90degrees during the day. He was tired and exhausted but sounded like he was in good spirits!

Today I got some flowers! I'd say from Nate but he claims he didn't send them. They were from Taz and Bob, hehe! Here are some pictures of the two beautiful vases full of roses and tulips just after I got them out of the boxes.
Here's a picture of the flowers that "Taz" sent me. I think that is his 'I miss my daddy face!'Here, he is inspecting the roses from Bob.
