So we celebrated 6 years of connubial bliss over December. It came and it went intermingled with the blur of the holidays. One of the obvious cons of a December wedding are definitely those forever, December anniversaries-- how do you guys make a December Anniversary special in the midst of Christmas mayhem?
We went to dinner at Sequoia Restaurant in Placerville on the Dec 30th, and get this-- it will be closed forever as a restaurant. We literally showed up, with a giftcard, on the last possible night to eat dinner there-- as of the New Year, they do only weddings and banquets. So that was lucky for us!
They threw in free beverages because we had to wait a little at the bar, and they threw in a free Bananas Flambe because of our anniversary-- talk about going out in style!
Also, my parents kindly agreed to watch our kids so this night could happen. Super wonderful.
And speaking of watching our kids, some wonderful people in our ward were willing to watch ours last weekend so we could have a little anniversary get-a-away! It was heavenly, we stayed at the Hyatt, I got to order a scratch made omelet in the morning and have all the french toast and juice I wanted. Justin got to catch up on football. We got some rest and were able to enjoy several meals in a row with out children making messes or demanding bites off my plate. Made me appreciate the little buggers when we got home though!
Seriously a treat! Thank you friends, you know who you are!

So, just to tease you a bit..."bugger" is a really bad word in England. Not sure exactly what it means, but it is on par with the "f"word. Kevin slipped up once in public. We used it the same way you did here, luckily no one heard him, but I knew it was bad and warned him not to again.
