Man, 4 years have somehow flown by since I married my sweetheart! During that time we had 6 bunnies, Micah graduated college, I temporarily gave up on college, became doggy parents, we built our first house, had our first baby, and I started a business! I love growing up with Micah and getting to know who we are and having the other person to really support one another in every life venture.
We alternate our anniversary planning so that one person (ie Micah) isn't always in charge of the surprise. It's not just my celebration after all.. He was just as much involved in our wedding haha. So he has the odd years and I have the even ones. And yes, your math is correct, this year was my year.
Our anniversary was also an Anti Fun Rut date because.... We left Olive with my parents.... OVERNIGHT!
I kind of had a mini panic attack before I dropped her off to my parents... And by kind of I mean I cried in the car once I left! :( in the last 10 months aka her entire existence, I've never been without her. She hasn't slept in my bed or anything, but has always been a door away.
My sister was also taking care of Zoey for me, so I was really missing my girls . :(
Once I contained my sad homesickness, I picked Micah up from the car rental agency (he had just gotten back from a business trip) and headed up to Park City.
But first, Micah gave me this gorgeous bouquet.
He has the best taste in flowers.
Our first stop was Ruth's Chris. We have eaten there for all of our anniversary dinners so far (strange to think about since it has never been a set thing) and they decorated our table in honor of our anniversary.
I'm going to spam you with my delicious meal.
Amaze balls iceberg wedge salad
Baked cauliflower & garlic mashed potatoes -- incredible cauliflower business
My filet mignon that I always get butterflied open... Omg I'm hungry now!
Our surprise free dessert -- freaking fantastic cheesecake. Seriously so yummmz!
We took some glorious selfies... which Micah can't stand when I try to take some pics of us..
After dinner I texted my dad to see how Liv was doing... Because I missed her so much! I got back a hilarious text:
BM means poop to my dad. Industrial strength poop, hahahahaa
Our last pic before we left. We had to be wheel chaired out because we were so stuffed full of amazing-ness.
K not really, but I felt like I could go hibernate for several years after.
I then took us up to Midway, to stay at the Homestead. I found a groupon that had a fantastic deal for the night. We went hot tubbing right away and it felt amazing. Delish steak belly + hot tub face = best night ever! ;P
Our super cute little cottage house that we stayed the night in.
The following morning we slept in, drove to my parents house (who made us waffles ps) and got to finally snuggle this little sweet thing.
It's amazing how much my heart can love someone. I would be completely lost without Micah.. my partner in crime, fellow adventure seeker, lazy Sunday napper, sweet surprise maker, and most loving father and husband ever. As well as Olive, that sweet little birdie with big blue eyes and adorable dimples that has me wrapped around her little nail-painted fingers. And lastly my goofy big-tongued running partner Zoey, who runs and wiggles her butt at the sight of me like she can't contain how happy she is to see me every single day. How could I not love my life with these amazing people around me? And yes, Zoey is a person in my eyes.
