Friday Matt and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary. When we were thinking about what to do to mark the day, I got to thinking about ways we have celebrated things in the past, which got me thinking about all the great things we've shared in the last 5 years. For some of our other anniversaries we've taken short trips (Niagara) or just eaten fancy food. We've spent birthday's on Roller Coasters and in warehouses tasting beers. When Matt got a job out here, we went and bought him work clothes. Matt's celebrated my seminars, and I've celebrated his race wins (which are more fun, because there is cash involved). The biggest party we've had was certainly for my graduation, which still pales in comparison to how happy I was on our wedding day.
It's nice to have this reminder of our "together-happiness" in what is shaping up to be a stressful month. With my pending unemployment come questions about moving and logistics and budgets and our lease and lots of other things that make taking a couple days to just be grateful that for better or worse we share our problems timely indeed.
Oh, and this year, we had a picnic on the front step, watched a baby raccoon in the backyard and took ourselves out for fancy coffee. It's nice enough I would do it again in 5 years.
