James and I celebrated our 6th Wedding Anniversary over the weekend. For those who know our story, you know we are two crazy fools who had a whirlwind romance with a lot of comedic errors that has led to a crazy marriage full of comedic moments. Our anniversary was no different this year.
We did not go on any grand adventure trips this time around. We tried to have a relaxing weekend at home. We perused our photo albums remembering old times and selecting photos for a collage we are making of the first five years of marriage. I am determined we will have a photo from each year that reminds us of the big events in our lives that year. Some years, there are horrible photos which make it difficult to select one. This lead to many laughable moments remembering the past few years. We have the photos of Naples, Tampa, building our house (such a joke), family moments (niece, nephew, wedding), getting the dog, my cooking adventures, our friends, traveling around Florida on weird vacations, and New Zealand.
Then there was the dinner plans. I thought we could go to a nice plan downtown. Little did I know downtown is shut down on Sunday. We tried one restaurant to discover it closed, went to another, which was closed. Finally settled on a new restaurant in town, which was tasty. Wouldn't have selected it for an anniversary dinner, but the food was good and we had ample conversation, so all around a nice night. Just another well-planned event in our life that did not turn out the way we planned, but was better.
The one picture is from our wedding. The other is from this weekend. Shocking how we have changed, yet we are still the same crazy people.

Some of the best things in our almost 34 years were the events that didn't go as planned but turned out better. An open mind and the ability NOT to cling to plans is the first step. I hope you have another six to the tenth power happy years!
Love it!
Happy Anniversary! What lovely pictures!
