Friday is our fifth anniversary!

This Friday is our five year anniversary!!!
  I love Brian so much, and marrying him has made me happy every day.  I remember the feeling of driving away from our wedding and feeling so excited about going on a trip alone, just the two of us for the first time.  Our honeymoon was spent in a resort in Puerta Vallarta, Mexico.  We took a little kayak out onto the ocean one day, and we spent every day at the pool.  We also went on a sailing trip and I got so seasick and spent the whole boat ride below deck standing over the sink!  I also remember taking bus rides down to the city from our resort and sitting on Brian's lap while the bus flew down the hills with the windows open.

We wanted to go on an anniversary trip this year, but that will have to wait until later this summer because of the post office's rules about time off for new mail carriers.  So I took a tip from a book I'm reading and decided to do five gifts for five years, and to give one each day leading up to our anniversary.  Right now I'm waiting for him to get home because I'm really excited about his gift for today!

On different note, it is so terrible to hear the news about the tornadoes in Oklahoma.  Brian and I both went to college in Oklahoma City, and can't believe that it hit so close to friends and family still living there (who are thankfully safe).  Praying for those who lost homes and loved ones this week.
