2-year Anniversary

Monday, June 2, was our two-year anniversary. I applaud Matt for making arrangements for a babysitter and making reservations at one of our favorite restaurants AND keeping it a surprise from me. I had already started making dinner when Matt walks in with flowers (roses, sunflowers, and the irises down below--the roses and sunflowers took a turn for the worse) and a card which said we were going to take a trip down memory lane for the night. The sunflowers represented the first flower he ever bought me on our very first date.

So we started the evening with dinner at Benihanas, one of our favorite restaurants because they have the best fried rice in the world, but it is very pricey so we have not been there since we got married. We then took a stroll down the Woodlands River Walk, which is where we had our first kiss. As we walked, we talked about memories of when we were dating. We were aided by looking through some "scrapbooks" that we made each other when we were engaged to help us remember our whole dating experience. I highly recommend making some sort of memory book or writing down memories in a journal when engaged because as we were reading through the memories, it's amazing how much we had forgotten! It was a very romantic evening and made me fall in love with Matt all over again as we relived our dating memories.
