Happy Anniversary to Us!

Today is Beau's and my 4th anniversary! It's been a special day so far. Every year we give each other the traditional gift for that particular year. The first year was paper, then cotton, then leather...and this year is fruit or flowers (yikes for Beau's gift!). I got up to put Asher back to sleep at 4:30 this morning, and when I came back to bed there was something "glowing" underneath the comforter. It was a digital picture frame. And the last picture on it was a picture of an APPLE. =) Very creative. And I gave Beau an assortment of FRUITY candy and a gift card to Wal-Mart. The gift card has a bride (holding FLOWERS) and a groom...the only one that I could find with flowers on it. =) Asher actually decided not to go back to sleep, so he was basically awake from 4:30 this morning! Crazy kid! So, Beau, being the good hubby and daddy that he is, stayed up with Asher. And I slept until 8:00. Yea! Asher went down for a nap around 9:00, and I fixed breakfast - pancakes, BANANAS (fruit...see the theme?) with brown sugar, and sparkling white GRAPE juice. It was a nice little breakfast at the table (unlike where we normally sit for meals) with a candle and a "Country Love" =) CD playing. We talked about some things that we enjoyed from the last year. Beau likes it when Asher and I surprise him with little visits during the day when we're out on a walk or something. And I like his creative gifts (like the picture frame with a picture of an apple). Those were just two little things, but it's interesting that the things we remember are just the simple things. It seems like it should be easy to keep each other happy. =) Unfortunately, I'm a little too much of a "woman" at times!!! Anyway, then while we were cleaning up after breakfast, Beau stopped me and we danced in the kitchen to one of our favorite country songs. Other than that, we've just been taking it easy and hanging out together. I'm about to go get ready for the day, because he's taking Asher and me somewhere special for lunch. So...ta-ta for now. More to come later...
