My Anniversary Gift

Although Jason was very busy these last couple of weeks, he still managed to find a very nice gift for me! Heehe, actually last weekend when my Mother-In-Law and I were "shopping" downtown (the guys took the stroller AND our purses) we found this wonderful little shop on main that had lots of very neat things in it. They sell signs of all sorts with wonderful little saysing on them. Margaret found one that says "Amazing Grace" in beautiful rich colors with the song notes and words lightly in the background. It was very pretty. I had found one that said "to have and to hold and never let go" that I thought would have made a PERFECT anniversary gift. Well, Saturday Jason's day got very busy (as it usually does) and he asked me if I would go pick up my gift because he was running out of time. I was happy to do it while the kids were napping, but when I got there I found this one, it is taken from the Song of Solomon in the Bible and Jason agreed once I brought it home that he liked this one better!

We had a WONDERFUL anniversary. Of course we went to church first thing in the morning. Jason and I played "Sweet Hour of Prayer" him on the piano and me on the clarinet. We then drove to Rapid to eat at the Olive Garden and went to Bust Buy to find a new camera (I would consider to be part of my gift) and came home to watch Loves Abiding Joy (very good!) and The Notebook. We had already watched The Notebook once, but thought it would be a good one to watch for such an occasion. We played with the kids for while and put them to bed. It really was a great day!

I thank God for the 6 years that He has given to Jason and I and look forward to many MANY more!
