Anniversary

Yesterday was my husband and my wedding anniversary. It was not a milestone one for us this year, but it is getting close to one. We have never done much for celebrating on this day because we feel like everyday is a celebration in our marriage. But we have had some strange spur of the moment anniversary parties.
On our twenty-fifth, our children thought that we should do something special. They all came home and we got pizzas from Pizza Hut. It just so happen that it was on a weekend and unexpected guests dropped in "just because". By the time it was said and done, we fed about forty people and the majority of them didn't even know that it was a special day for anyone.
A couple of our others were spent camping because it fell on Labor Day weekend and that is what we did to celebrate the end of summer.
One other one was spent at a local lake with Kentucky Fried Chicken for our meal. We played softball and fished. My husband's parents came along and the pictures that we took speak volumes. We had a great time!
This year was no different. It was just my husband and I celebrating since it was the middle of the week and we ended up eating at a local Tastee Freeze. The food wasn't the greatest and we had to swat mosquitoes through the whole meal, but we were together and had completed another year. It doesn't take a five star resturant or a room full of people for us to remember that so many years ago we made a pledge to always be there and to love each other. We thank God each day that He brought us together and for the many blessings that He has given to us both.
