Ben and I celebrated 11 years of marriage this month! We had to get a little creative due to a lack of babysitters so we did something a little different this year. We did a day date while the kids were in school and then celebrated with them in the evening. It turned out to be a really nice time! We went to breakfast and walked through the Ruth Bancroft Gardens. It was stunning! I had no idea cactus could be so beautiful! Then to downtown Walnut Creek to VaDaVi for lunch on the patio. An awesome day with my awesome husband. We told the boys that they get to celebrate with us for dinner and we were going to all make it a special night! As we sat at dinner we talked about the blessing of marriage with them and was surprised at how sweet they were. Spencer said he can't wait to get married and have someone to snuggle in bed with every night! After dinner I asked them what would be special to do together-the awnser: snuggle on the couch and watch a movie, eat popcorn, and drumstick ice cream! So that's what we did. I never thought about celebrating our anniversary with our kids before, but so glad we did! What a special time!
(Matthew 19:4-6) 4 He answered, "“Haven’t you read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female, 5 and said, ‘For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall join to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh?’ 6 So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, don’t let man tear apart.”"
