Five years is a pretty big deal, right? I like to think of it as the first of the "Biggies." Obviously the one year anniversary is special in its own way, but I think from there on out couples start to count by fives.
For some reason I just knew I wouldn't feel like going out tonight - it's Friday and I'm always exhausted, so I'm grateful we went out last weekend. We thought Sunday would be ideal - not too busy, calm and peaceful like Sundays tend to be. First we drove to a new German restaurant that's in the next town over, but it was closed on Sundays. Second we tried a local Italian place with amazing food - they don't serve any alcohol (we hopped right up). We ended up across the street at a bar called The Green Emerald that's situated in a seriously old building right on the main drag. We were the only ones there, the place was decked out for St. Patty's Day, and we had the TV all to ourselves (E! Red Carpet at the Oscar's).
It was like the most perfect date ever. Jeff had Busch Light and I had two tall Blue Moons, he had "the best burger he's ever eaten" and I had a strip steak with asparagus. We laughed about Giuliana's too-big dress and toasted to Five Years of Awesomeness.
One phenomenal honeymoon. Two precious boys. Three big fights. Four crappy meals. Five lovely years.
