6 year anniversary!!!

How exciting that we just had our 6 year anniversary!!  Next month we will have 10 years together!  Time flies when you are having fun!  It really does seem like these years have flown by.  I love going through life with my BFF.  Neil surprised me with a fancy bottle of perfume because I've dropped 2 bottles of perfume in the last 5 months!  He even wrapped it in pool noodle to make it safe from my clumsy hands!  He gave me a box of candy since year 6 traditional gift is candy!



Neil is so sentimental and loves a theme just as much as me.  He made this "Lewis kind of anniversary!"  We started out the evening by dropping the kids off with Nana and Grandad.  We then headed to the Lewis House, a bed and breakfast!   Neil's grandfather was born in the house and the lady who owns it knows more about Neil's family history than he does! We checked in and went to our room, the Majestic Suite.  It was fancy and had it's own private bath.  It was a tad creepy because there were dolls everywhere.

We were excited!!
We headed to Raw for our anniversary dinner.  We enjoyed the "Lewis" roll for an appetizer to add to our Lewis filled weekend.


Here we are at Raw in Ruston.

We headed to Portico for an after dinner drink before heading back to our Majestic Suite.
We had such a fun evening celebrating 6 years and just think...it all started right here in Hawaii (wink)...

I let Neil open his gift when we got back to the room.  He opened it and asked if the Christmas elf had come because there was just a bunch of random items in a bag...but they were all clues!!

a baseball, an airplane, and an apple...hmmmmmmmmmm

Neil said "am I going on a trip to see a baseball game in New York!?" Yessssssssssss!!  I surprised Neil with going to NYC with me in July!  I was originally just going with my dad, but now we are all going.  I'm so glad he wants to go!  I even asked his boss a couple months ago if he could be off and arranged child care.  Yay!!!

CJ, the owner of the Lewis House asked Neil to invite the rest of the crew for breakfast.  She wanted to pick Richard's brain on Lewis family history. One thing she said that was a little crazy was that she sent her son to Chamberlain-Hunt because the Lewis's sent their kids there.  WHAT??  That is where Richard went to high school.  Anyway our quiet breakfast before getting the kids turned out to be a family filled one.  Fine with us...we love these people.

Fancy breakfast including a bell in case we needed her

That person holding Henry is me..At first glance I look just like my mom

Bennett had a blast!

Bennett wanted to go in this tunnel like 40 times.
