Our Anniversary Weekend

I can hardly believe that Edgar and I have been married for two years...actually, it seems like we've been together for much longer (in a GOOD way, of course!) SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED! We had a wonderful anniversary weekend. Saturday Edgar watched Eli while I went to a baby shower. He gave Eli a bottle for the first time Friday night in preparation for his Saturday morning babysitting. He wanted to give Eli a bottle at least once while I was there so that Saturday when he gave him a bottle he had some 'experience'. Edgar did a great job giving mom a 'break' while I went to the shower. After I got back from the shower we went to Edgar's parent's house to spend some time with them. We had a really nice time. Ruth made dinner (amazing, as always) and made a cookie cake for our anniversary. It was a relaxing evening. Eli is getting so much better in the evenings. I used to be nervous about taking him out past 5:00 because he would cry so much, but now he does great.

On Sunday Eli went to Uncle Ryan and Aunt Jenny's house while Edgar and I went on a date. We went to see 'Defiance'. It was a very good movie. It was a story about a group of people during WWII who hid from the Nazis. We really enjoyed it. We went to Applebees for dinner, and had a great time just talking and eating :) I'm not completely sure what Eli did at Ryan & Jenny's, but they said he was good. I think Jenny said she was going to update the event on her blog...still waiting... ;)

On our actual anniversary it was a fairly normal Monday. Edgar worked, and I played with Eli all day. I made chicken, rice and beans for dinner (big surprise) and it was a nice quite evening at home.

It is pretty amazing to think about all that has happened in the past two years. Both Edgar and I are so thankful, and recognize often how very blessed we are. I can't wait to see what the next few years have in store!
