There are a few traditions we try to keep every year. I think it is fun to try and get each other the traditional anniversary gift for the year (year 2 is cotton), drink out of the same champagne flutes we used at our wedding (this year we had to do sparkling grape juice of course) and take a family photo so we can see how much our little family has changed in a year.
What started it all - Proposal July 4, 2009
Wedding Day - June 12, 2010
Six Month Anniversary - December 12,2010
One Year Anniversary - June 12, 2011
Two Year Anniversary - June 12, 2012
The dogs were not cooperating with the self timer so this is the best we could get.
For gifts this year I kind of cheated a little bit because the main part of Danny's gift was not made of cotton but some of the smaller stuff was. I got him an autographed picture of Michael Young and then put together a Rangers goodie basket to go along with it that had a tshirt (cotton), cotton candy (cotton), peanuts, cracker jacks and sunflower seeds.
Danny did a great job on my gift (despite the fact that he wrapped it in the A&M snuggie that I cover up with on the couch)! He had a picture from our honeymoon (where we are actually drinking champagne strangely enough) put on a big canvas.
We also went out to dinner last night at the same place we had our very first date, Salum. This was the first time we had been back in 4 1/2 years and it was so fun to reminisce about that very first date! Danny even ordered flowers that he had delivered to the restaurant so they were sitting on the table waiting for us!
I absolutely love being married to my best friend and I am so lucky that he chose me! 2 years down, a lifetime to go!
