Monday, March 28th

Monday was our actual wedding anniversary.  JT woke me up at 5:30 that morning with a gentle kiss and a single yellow rose.  When I finally got out of bed around 8am and made my way into the kitchen, I found the beautiful bouquet of yellow and orange roses that my single blossom had come from.  I loved it and it was such a sweet surprise.

I arranged for a babysitter and actually spent time getting ready! It was SOO nice to feel like a girl again. I even snapped proof in case we forgot to take pictures on our date. Bad lighting and all, I was bubbling with excitement!

For our date we went to dinner theatre at The Old Spaghetti Factory! The play was Romeo and Juliet. It was so much fun to see it again and with all their personal twists. The cast mingled with the audience and would even serenade us between scenes! Juliet was played by one of JT's old bankers and she definitely did a good job. They ended up using JT to stand-in as Mercutio! It was absolutely hilarious! I don't think the actors liked getting upstaged though. But if you know my husband, you know he loves a crowd. ;) After that we watched a few alternate endings to the play that included crazy love potions, romantic happily-ever-afters, and a tiny bit of the original tragedy.
Here's the picture we had someone take...I'm not loving how it came out, but it's not the worst.

HERE's the worst:

I guess we turned out to be Shakespearean devils who can't stand light. Who knew?
Happy Anniversary JT! MWAH!
