The Walton's celebrate the BIG 5!

This year we celebrated our 5th Wedding Anniversary on May 18th. Lucky for us it was on a  Friday so my parents were able to come and babysit and lucky for me "GLEE" was playing at Jubilations Dinner Theatre which just happens to be one of my favorite television shows (hence THIS post back in 2010). The entertainment was great and the food wasn't too shabby eiher. Even Wendell was laughing and enjoying himself. During intermission and between the dinner courses the cast walked around and talked to people. "Kirk" told me yellow was my power color. He also wore pink sparkly Toms.....

After the show I suprised Wendell with a night at a hotel! (Too much information I know!) He couldn't believe I was able to pull it all off. My parents were staying over night to watch the kids, I had a bag packed and snuck it out to his car when he got home from work, and I had a whole spread of yummy treats and Velata chocolate all ready to go. I even brought the A&W mugs we got as a gift at our wedding.This was the first time since our 1st Anniversary that we actually did something fun and special. I've realized that we definitely need dates like this.

The Walton's on our Wedding Day. I feel like we were such baby's back then. I was 18 and Wendell was 23.

I know we've learned and grown a lot over the past 5 years. Marriage has its ups and downs and we have had our fair share of both. I wouldn't change any of it as we have 2 beautiful little boys and we're the happiest we've ever been!
