9 Year Anniversary

Today is our anniversary! Can't believe it has been 9 years...that seems so long ago.  Brendon had some training during the day which meant he would be home for dinner! YAY!

Olivia and I went to the Grayson library this morning.  I really wanted to go to get a library card and get some books.  When I got there they told me there was a story time going on.  So we tiptoed in and got a seat.  The theme was dinosaurs and after the stories Olivia got a dinosaur stamp and made a dinosaur puppet.  Then we got our library card and got some books.  Of course we had to get Curious George books! Then we came home for lunch and a nap. 

Brendon had an awful ride home in the rain but we still went out for dinner.  We went to Frontera since it is close by.  It was yummy!! Then we came home for dessert and presents.  This years gift was leather...I got Brendon a new wallet and he got me a new address book! I know that doesn't sound too exciting for gifts but we both needed them!

My mom sent us this great card and here is what it said inside:

A marriage is measured by more than just years- it's measured by living, by laughter, and tears...by good times, contentment, and dreams that come true...and also by hard times that love brings you through. A marriage is greater than simply the sum of all you've accomplished and how far you've come...it's people whose lives you have touched in some way and values you've stood for and lived day by day. A marriage is measured by lessons you've learned, examples you've set, and respect you have earned. It's forged in the balance of partnership, friendship, and love all combined.

Thanks mom for the great card! It says everything that a marriage should have!
