7 Years!

Alex and I celebrated our anniversary yesterday...7 years! It has been fun reminiscing about all of the fun we've had together over the last 7 years. Most of our memories involve traveling, since that's what we love to do the most. And eating, since that comes second!

We celebrated by going out to dinner on Saturday night to a local Mexican restaurant called Tortillas. We've been missing our Mexican food and heard about this place so we decided to try it out. The food was the best we've had in this area (mind you, it doesn't compare to some of our favorite places in Utah, but we'll take what we can get) and the atmosphere was fun. Bob Marley was playing in the background, so Alex and the owner of the place were both just singing along the whole time. It was pretty funny! We also checked out a local bakery called Leidel's. I'm pretty picky when it comes to bakeries, and I will say that the Jewish Apple Cake was delicious!

For our actual anniversary we headed out to Longwood Gardens. We figured it'd be a perfect Sunday afternoon activity. I'm sure you'll see a lot of pictures from Longwood over the next year with our annual pass in tow! The gardens were BEAUTIFUL with all of the tulips out. My favorite time of year is spring because of tulips - how fitting that we were married when the tulips were in at Temple Square. On our honeymoon we were taking a scenic drive outside of Seattle and came across a tulip farm - it was an amazing sight. Longwood just reminded me of all of that and it was a wonderful day.



Nicole isn't a fan of standing or crawling on grass (or anything with texture). When we put her down, she made a cringing face and was trying to lift her feet off of the grass so she didn't have to feel it. Oh what a sheltered life she leads...
