March 17, 2008


Yes, March 17th is St. Patrick's Day. But it's also our anniversary. Brice and I have been married a whole year now. We can no longer be called "newlyweds." What a year it has been! Our love for each other has grown as we've learned more about the other and how they tick. I've been blessed with an amazing man, a devoted husband, and incredible father!

We celebrated by having dinner at McCormick & Schmick's. We ate at McCormick & Kuleto's in San Francisco last year. Sidenote - that one restaurant was named differently because the architect, Kuleto, wanted his name included as advertisement so he did the work for free!


After dinner we headed off to the hotel where we stayed last year before leaving for California. There we finally unwrapped the year-old cake. Still pretty, eh? Our fondant monogram was still beautifully in place, until removing the plastic wrap encasing the cake! Hats off to the women who packed it up last year - it tasted wonderful!


One of God's extra blessings came in the form of a $100 discount off of the room because of Brice's occupation and the date we selected just "happened" to be one of the eligible dates! (smile)
The picture below sums up the goodies of the evening: a cake picnic, wine from our honeymoon, snacks, gifts - the only thing missing is the Phase 10 cards!


It was nice to get away and just be together! Happy anniversary, baby!

Is that an Ipod?? Did someone get that as a gift? Funny you mentioned the cake - a friend was asking about that last night. Hmh
