Anniversary Recap....

Ben had to work on our anniversary but planned a day full of surprises. He started off by taking me to Panera for breakfast. We then went to Las Tortugas for lunch and ended the day with Flemings for dinner. It was such a fun day FILLED with delicious food from my 3 favorite restaurants. Finally, as you can see from the pic above, he gave me a gorgeous David Yurman pearl and diamond bracelet. LOVE him!!!!

3 years ago today....

I married this hunk and truly could not be happier. I thank God for such a loving and compassionate husband who loves me just the way I am. He is a hard worker, a loyal friend, a good listener, and he always makes me laugh even when I am stressed beyond belief. He makes it a point to tell me I am beautiful and that he is proud of me every day. I am truly blessed. Love you Ben! Happy anniversary. It has been the best 3 years and I'm looking forward to many more together.

Blessing of the week....

Yay for getting reimbursed for our sewer line disaster!!!! Back at the end of May, a cable company hit our sewer line, which caused our bathrooms to flood and our yard to be gutted down the middle. We originally thought that it must have been old tree roots that had done it. However, the city and cable company representatives came out to inspect and they determined that it was the cable company's fault. Well, we thought, "Great. They will have to pay for it".....WRONG. Both the city and cable company were arguing that it was the other's fault so guess who got stuck with the HUGE bill? We finally found out this week that we will be getting reimbursed!! Now.....that will cover the cost of the new transmission that had to be replaced in Ben's truck last week. If it is not one thing it's another, right? It may not seem like a big deal to anyone else, but that was our blessing for the week and I thought I would share:)
