Geez, I'm getting slammed for not posting over the weekend! (thanks, W!)
The anniversary was great! Dh arranged for his mom to take the kids on Thursday and we went to our Sunset Dinner cruise on the Great Salt Lake. It was so-so food but amazing views! Very romantic. We had a great time and 2 hours went by too quickly... Grandma kept the kids till Friday morning, when dh took the day off from work as a surprise and let me sleep in while he picked up the kiddos. Oh, when we got home from the cruise there were rose petals all over the house and our bedroom, as well as a lovely dozen white roses on the table! Beautiful! It all made the CD I made for him seen kinda goofy, but it was so nice.
Friday (our REAL anniversary) was fun just bumming around the house and playing with the kids. He hired a babysitter in the ward to watch the kids again while we went to do sealings at the temple. We were able to join a great sealing group who was grateful to have us with them and the sealer was a funny, inspiring man with appreciation for everyone. He thanked us repeatedly for coming. It was very special and I was quite emotional as we listened to those same promises made 11 yrs ago renewed again.
After leaving the temple dh had the feeling that we should walk onto Main Street plaza and see the reflecting pool. We met a nice non-member couple who were traveling thru Salt Lake and asked us many questions about the temple and the buildings on Temple Square. It was an amazing missionary experience as we talked to them for a few minutes. We tried to answer their questions the best we could and hope that they were left with a good impression of the church and our beautiful city.
We ended the night with dinner at the Gateway (California Pizza Kitchen) and it was YUMMY! We hardly ate anything that day and were starved, so maybe anything would have tasted great!
I am immensely grateful for being married to such a great guy. He was so romantic by planning out so many things. It was an amazing two-day anniversary!
