the lack of luster of 'leven

Last weekend, lovely hubby and I realized that we both had forgotten something. It hadn't happened yet, so it wasn't a huge deal, but we were both surprised that time had gotten away from us without either of us really planning anything. Nothing big, just our wedding anniversary, that's all. This past Sunday marked eleven years of wedded bliss.

Eleven just sounds like an ehh kind of number. In the weeks leading up to last year's anniversary were filled with wonder and awe around that magical number of ten. A decade. A double digit. Wow. I blog-marked the occasion with a stroll down memory lane via a viral wedding meme. But, eleven? Yeah, it's eleven, nothing spectacular. No big trips or fancy outings like last year's day in Colonial Williamsburg sans children, but we did have the good fortune to have free babysitting (thanks L!!) and a movie together, even squeezing in a drink and delicious dessert beforehand!

So, even though life doesn't really allow for a huge celebration right now, we're still happy to have reached the eleven year mark, and thankful for the silly course of events that brought us together all those years ago. Happy anniversary, lovely hubby!

Looking forward to many more,
