10 years

Ten years!  I cannot believe that Brian and I have been married ten years already!  Last year, we started thinking about just what to do for such a special occasion.  Who would have thought that we would be spending it here?!!  I will ALWAYS remember what we did to celebrate just because of where we are!  Since we came here in January Brian has joked that for our anniversary he was giving 6 months of no cleaning and no cooking.  It is the BEST anniversary present EVER!!  Our big day of celebration ended up falling on Good Friday.  There was a fellowship with some local friends that we attended and a friend of ours offered to watch BJ at night so we could go out to dinner. It really was a great day!

Our anniversary family photo.
For our first anniversary we received a FANTASTIC present from Brian's dad and stepmom.  It was an anniversary book.  A page is dedicated to every year of marriage.  There is a place for a photo and a spot to write memories from the past year.  Every year, as part of our anniversary celebration, we take a photo of us (and BJ too once he came along) and we write about what has happened.  We left the book back in the States (on purpose) but I can't wait to add all the exciting adventures we've had this past year! 


The boat club.
For our dinner date we went to the boat club.  It is a restaurant that recently opened right on the water.  Our friends who were watching BJ gave us their car and driver to use for our night out. 

Our meal.
Like most fancy restaurants in this area, the food options included Indian, Chinese, and Thai foods.  We selected a variety of foods, not really knowing what they were since there was no description in the menu!  The food was good but just a little spicy (like most foods here!). 

I had wanted to post a picture of Brian and I on our wedding day but apparently I do not have one available on this computer to post!  Mental note to scan our pictures when we get home!
