9 y e a r s

Yesterday was 9 years since the hubby and I first started dating. (not sure you can really consider it dating when you're 15 and you have to have your parents drive you everywhere.. but you get the point) When we got married we said we would stop celebrating our dating anniversary and celebrate our wedding one instead.

So yesterday we woke up and still said the whole "happy anniversary.. can't believe it's been 9 years.. yada yada yada.." and that was that. Well about halfway through the day I was talking to Vince and he said he felt odd not doing anything for our anniversary since we have been celebrating Oct. 8th for years. So, we decided to go to out dinner, nothing fancy (no complaints from me, just meant I didn't have to cook!) and then after dinner we got home and vince opened a bottle of champagne and we toasted to the past 9 years and to the  many more to come <3



We wont do anything big to celebrate our dating anniversary anymore, but we will probably always go to dinner just because October 8th, 2000 will always be a special day to us <3

jenna--I'm not sure how i missed this--but I know what you mean!!

The dating anniversary is such a HUGE deal when you've been together FOREVER like us!! haha...

We are kind of lucky that our 'dating anniversary' happens to fall on valentines day, so we are able to just pretend its for v-day when really we know its about 'that day'. Whether you're 15 or not (which we were)...it still matters!
