8th Anniversary 1/1/19: 

Alright, I left this post open for over a year hoping we would take that picture and get it posted. Well, it didn't happen. It was a fun tradition for the years it took place but I'm releasing the pressure to do this right now. 

As of 1/1/2020, we have been married for 9 years. It's been beautiful and hard and rewarding and refining and all of the things. I am super grateful for all of it. 

Brunch Date

When GiGi visits, we always try to get in as many dates as we can. It helps that this visit is around my birthday so we are taking full advantage! (We budget/set aside money for birthdays at the beginning of the year and I'm soooo glad we do because with the year and bills we've had, I am so thankful we can still spend some time out!) 

Soby's in Greenville was our first stop. A Sunday morning brunch date. Love him. 

Y'ALL!!! It was so good. Everything tasted incredible but we both agreed that the shrimp and grits was the best dish. Food pictures from Matt and me. Not all me. 😉

 

  

  

Still smiling and soooo full! 

We stopped in the bookstore and these made me laugh so hard! 

  

It was a great morning date! 

Our 7th Anniversary!

I am not even sure how 7 years have passed by since that chilly and rainy New Year's Day when we were married. This year was cold cold cold but not rainy thankfully! We planned to take yearly pictures but last year life happened and there is no picture. Hey, such is life! 

We got a fun fancy date this year as well as two other outings just us so we are definitely feeling spoiled!
