Marriage Year 3

Happy Anniversary to us! Happy Anniversary to us! Happy Anniveeeeersary dear uuussss, Happy Anniversary to us!

Wahoo! We have officially hit 3 years of marriage! We spread our celebrating over a few days because our anniversary was on a Tuesday, the day before we left on the church pioneer trek. We needed to wake up at 4:30am for trek, which meant relatively early bedtime on the night of our anniversary (and don't forget last minute packing since we're both procrastinators).

In the time that we did have, we celebrated by . . .

. . . going out to breakfast Saturday morning at Natalia's Cafe! Even though this cafe is only 2 blocks from our house, we have never been and I've always wanted to go. I call it the "Luke's Diner" of Camas. Very cute, quaint, and delicious!

. . . spending the day at Camas Days Festival. This is a downtown city festival that attracts literally thousands of people! Over 10,000 people came over the course of the 2 day festival. We watched the parade, shopped the booths (Brodie picked out some adorable earrings for me), and ate our fair share of BBQ food. Later that night we met up with neighborhood friends for some games.

. . . having family over for dinner on Sunday. Thanks for the delicious dessert, Mom Fish! 

. . . eating out and watching our favorite shows. On the day of our anniversary, Brodie had work. Which meant that we had only a few hours that night to get out and have some fun. We went downtown to eat out and were about to go for dessert, when instead we had to stop at the local hardware store to get ant traps for the newly discovered ant infestation in the bathroom. After that our plans went down the drain and we instead opted for a lazy night in watching our favorite Netflix show. Not very romantic, but still a fun evening with my other half. Nobody I would rather be lame and lazy with than Brodie Macklin Fish!
