Celebrating 5 Years

Brady and I celebrated our 5 YEAR ANNIVERSARY this past week. I know in 20 years I'll look back and think 5 years was nothing but right here, right now, I can't believe its been 5 years! In 5 years we've had two children, lived in two homes, had 6 cars :)...well I can't think of what else has happened but there's more! ;) We love each other more than ever and couldn't be happier!
Brady worked late on our anniversary (Thursday) so we celebrated Friday night. Jeff and Vanessa watched Kolton while Brady and I went on a picnic up at Lake Hefner on the East Wharf! It was probably the best date we've been on since before we were married! I'm so glad Brady suggested it! There was nothing fancy or extravagant about it but it was peaceful and relaxing and so beautiful...and we were alone!
What's a picture with Brady without a crazy face? ;)

This is what we ate on our picnic: turkey sandwiches, red grapes, carbonated water (me: Tangerine Lime, Brady: Black Cherry), potato chips for Brady, Sour Cream and Onion Pringles for me, and Coconut Dream cookies that taste pretty much like Samoas from the Girl Scouts.

We had the wharf to ourselves for pretty much the whole time. There was a live band playing at one of the restaurants there on the lake which was a great addition!

My turn to make a weird face!


Here's Brady and I almost 5 years ago on the wharf:

And here's us now:




We had a wonderful time up there! I'd love to go back when its a little cooler and just watch the sun set.
After our picnic we went back to Jeff and Vanessa's and took Kolton swimming with them. It was fun to spend time as a family too while celebrating our anniversary!
