Happy anniversary! My husband and I like to mix up our celebrations -- sometimes it's a fun trip and other times it's low-key and relaxing. Just being together truly is the best part. Have a great weekend!

Wow! Happy anniversary! My ideal date is making a Christmas bed in front of the tv, getting some romantic dvd's and sushi and just chilling. Well, that's not an ideal Spring date is it?

I took my beau to a Lion Park for our one year anniversary last weekend. It was so much fun!

Ok first of all, I am obsessed with that dress. Going to order it right now (and tempted to order two different colors I'm so in love). Anywayss, happy anniversary! Its my 8 year anniversary with my boyfriend on Tuesday (insane!). xo
