Celebrating 5 Years

Last night Ryan and I celebrated our anniversary. On August 10, 2002, we were married in beautiful Amarillo, TX. We had a blast at our reception out at the Blessen Farm (in Uncle Mike's backyard).
Sorry for the ghetto resolution in this picture. We actually don't have any digital pics from our wedding with us and we don't have our scanner yet either. I took a picture of the picture with our digital camera.

We have been blessed to celebrate our anniversaries in some pretty cool places. Our first anniversary was celebrated at the beach close to Bandirma, Turkey. We actually had 2 celebrations because we were in Paris a few days later. How can you not re-celebrate when you go to Paris? We went to the Eiffel Tower, went to a fabulous restaurant where the waiter enjoyed not speaking any English to us so he could watch us struggle (or so we thought), then took an evening cruise down the Seine. We spent our second anniversary in Bali, Indonesia at a really cool hotel called the Bali Aga . We spent our third and fourth anniversaries in Houston.
We celebrated this anniversary by taking a sunset ferry across the sea to a Mexican food restaurant!! It was really good. Ryan and I shared nachos and sour cream chicken enchiladas. We were excited when chips and salsa were brought out while we waited (we thought surely there wouldn't be chips and salsa all the way over here). The only thing missing was a fountain Dr. Pepper. Ryan and I enjoyed a lovely evening with great conversation. I have never stopped feeling blessed by my wonderful husband. He's got to be the best one ever.
