It was a great day! It started with separating for activities… Eric and Chandler went golfing, and the girls and I went to a cute “chick flick”. Then, we met up for lunch and some back to school shopping. We spent the afternoon just being lazy and hanging around the house with the kiddos.
Then, last night we thought we had a babysitter lined up so we could celebrate our anniversary with a quiet evening out together. So Eric dropped me off at the restaurant to get our names in, and went to drop off the kiddos to the babysitter. When he got there, he realized there’d been a miscommunication, and we weren’t really going to have a babysitter. At first everyone was a little bummed, until dad said, “Everyone go in and get dressed! We’re still going out to dinner!”
So, we took the whole family out for what was planned to be our quiet anniversary dinner, and it ended up being one of the greatest anniversary celebrations we could’ve had. What better way to celebrate the last 12 years together, than with those we’ve loved together for the last 12 years.
I think we’ve discovered a new family tradition… celebrating the family’s birthday… our wedding day… the day it all began!

Years ago someone told us about a tradition they had heard about "A Family Birthday Party" on their wedding anniversary and we loved it. The last few anniversaries have been our favorites, spending it with them... Love it.
