3rd anniversary

This year I did not want to do any of the planning for our anniversary and I wanted to be surprised with what Nolan could come up with. Yup, a big leap of trust to let your husband plan everything with no input from me. So we celebrated 2 days before our actual anniversary since it was on a Sunday this year. That day Nolan got off of work early, and got the kids ready for an overnighter with their cousins. We dropped them off at Brandon and Kami's and tried to go to dinner, but we ran out of time, so we got an ice cream cone at a place near where we were going, which was a play! We went to the Folsom Sutter street theater where we saw There Should Be Roses, which is this really cute play about an old man at a retirement home who breaks out in order to visit his wife's grave on their 60th anniversary. It was a comedy and very appropriate for the reason why we were out. It was such a tiny theater that it felt very intimate and private, and afterward the actors were outside so everyone could talk to them. We went home, where Nolan made me Mac and Cheese and hot dogs (no restuarants were open when we left the theater). Then we turned on Shutter Island, and I fell promptly asleep. Then we got up, stayed awake for a while, and then took naps, and didn't wake up til 1pm! Picked up the kids, hung out with Brandon and Kami, and came home. I love going to the theater, and it was such a nice surprise. Here's to a lifetime and beyond with my sweet husband.
