6th Wedding Anniversary

Dec 23, 2006

Time flies so fast. It felt just like yesterday…I never noticed 6 years passed me by. Of course, there were ups and downs during the marriage…who ever said marriage was a bed of roses? A lot of married couple wouldn’t even last this long nowadays…especially couples like us, you know…without a child yet…but what kept us strong is our "third wheel"…GOD. Hubby and I both know that we are healthy and capable of having kids (science can back us up) but we do not question God and His reasons. Whatever they are…everything is up to Him.

When we got married, a lot of our relatives told us not to have kids yet and wait for one or two years so we can get to know each other better before bringing in another life. Everyone was saying, no matter how well we know each other, there is always something new to discover about our spouse. Then when we decided to have kids already, we got too busy with our careers, it is so hard when you’re stressed out…so now, we just have to wait. A child is a gift and you don’t brat around asking for one, right? So in the meantime,we’ll just enjoy each other :)

Anyway, how did we spend our 6th wedding anniversary? Hubby surprised me. He booked us a room at the Crowne Plaza Hotel.

We stayed at 1106 and here’s a pic of our room…Dsc03038

We went there a bit after lunch, checked in and rested for awhile…had late lunch at Mangan (coz we were still stuffed before we left the house) and then we did a little bit of shopping. Afterwhich, we took some rest, got ready for dinner and went to eat at Fab (formerly Raphael).Dsc03067

(here is a view of Fab)

We were supposed to eat dinner at the Seven Corners but we figured since we’re gonna eat breakfast there the next day, we should eat somewhere else.

So anyway, here is what we ate at the buffet at Fab…Dsc03071

This is the band who played that night. They were funny. We had fun watching them. Too bad we didn’t get to know their band name.

When we got back to the room, we cuddled a bit in bed, telling stories when I rolled over yet another surprise…a card and hubby’s sweet note. Now, I’m not Ronald Reagan so whatever was written there is just for me :)

Happy Anniversary, Dad!
