We celebrated two big milestones at the beginning of March: the 2nd of the month was Lily's 18 month birthday (I know, she was born on August 30th but February only has 28 days so I declared it to be March 2nd) and the 3rd was Brynt and I's 10 year dating anniversary.
We had been trying to plan a night, just the two of us since Lily was about a year old but it never worked out until now so we took that to mean we should go all out and spend our first night away from Lily celebrating our anniversary. We've been through the typical up's and down's of a relationship, but have also been thrown a few extra curve balls that have brought us closer together and made us stronger than ever. We thought that deserved to be celebrated. We got a hotel suite at Weber's in Ann Arbor and enjoyed a bottle of champagne, the poolside room, hot tub, and their incredibly nice restaurant and bar. It was the perfect night away, especially because Lily exceeded all of my expectations and eased all of my worries about being away from her.
After our weekend away we spent a nice quiet day together on the third (the actual day of our anniversary) treating ourselves to Panera for dinner and a special cookie cake to celebrate our milestones. Lily particularly enjoyed the icing. After we put the babe down to bed we enjoyed our cookie cake with a glass of wine and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, which was the movie we saw on our first date. It was the perfect way to wrap up such a momentous occasion and I'm so looking forward the the next one!
