Six Years

January 6, 2013 | Disney, family

 

Six years ago yesterday, I married my best friend.

Check out my four year anniversary post for a recap of sorts from the big day.

I say this every year but wow time keeps passing so quickly. It’s funny to think back to that day, how you plan and plan for this day and when it was all said and done I just wanted to have a great time celebrating with my friends and family, and I don’t even remember what our centerpieces looked like or what kind of flowers were in the bridesmaids bouquets. My wedding was a fairytale, and I am so lucky I got to have such a great one with my prince charming. I have already started bugging Bobby about a ten year vow renewal in Disney World. Oh yes, it’s on my friends.

I may not have had a Disney wedding but we did have fireworks!

Bobby and I had a lazy day yesterday watching football then we stopped by a neighbors after the holiday, holiday party before going out to a nice dinner at our favorite spot on the gulf coast right across from the water, Half Shell Oyster House.

Heading to the party then dinner

Waiting for our delicious dinner

Best chocolate martini ever!

A low key day and weekend was just what we needed to recharge to get us through the next few crazy days before we leave for marathon weekend in Disney. Great way to celebrate!

QOTD: Do you go all out on your anniversary or is it not a big thing? What about birthdays?

    It goes back and forth for us, but we actually haven’t gotten to spend the last two, almost three anniversaries together. 2nd-moved out of state (and I lived in two states commuting three hours back and forth for 4 months), 3rd- he worked a 12 hour shift at a prison and 4th- he was at a wedding rehearsal the entire day. Oh well, I guess the real accomplishment is not killing each other again for another year! We also don’t do anything for birthdays because we both work and live away from any family or friends.
    Looks like you had a good time though! Enjoy your short period of rest until Goofy!

    Happy anniversary! The photos from your wedding are gorgeous. How old were you when you got married? I forget sometimes how in the South people tend to get married much earlier than here in the North.

    Happy Anniversary! Jason and I sometimes go out. We definitely celebrated 10th more than we did this year for 12th. But we still made a nice meal in.

    Happy Anniversary!!! We just celebrated 11 years in May! We try to celebrate every year by at least going out to dinner. Once kids come along it gets a lot harder! 🙂

    Happy Anniversary! I so want a Disney vow renewal but it’s so expensive–wow! We don’t go all out for our anniversaries–we always have good intentions and even find overnights for the kids, but then we end up ordering pizza and watching football. This year is the big 15 so we are going to make more of an effort!

    • Heather says

      January 7, 2013 at 7:08 pm

      Aw I hope you get to do something fun!

    Happy Anniversary! As someone six months away from my wedding, I really appreciate the advice to focus on the big picture. 🙂

Not ready for a phone yet? SAME. 🙋‍♀️ The Cosmo Not ready for a phone yet? SAME. 🙋‍♀️ 

The Cosmo JrTrack 5 Smartwatch has been the perfect in-between for us — she can call and text the people I approve, I can see where she is with GPS, and it has school mode, SOS, activity tracking, and even a little camera she loves. 

We got the Holiday Bundle with the screen protector and LaunchPad stand, and it honestly just makes the whole thing easier. 

If you want the link, comment “watch” and I’ll have it sent straight to your inbox. 🎄⌚️✨

🎄 POV: Our Weekend Holiday Getaway in Pigeon Forge 🎄 POV: Our Weekend Holiday Getaway in Pigeon Forge 
There’s just something about the holidays in the Smoky Mountains — the lights, the laughter, the togetherness — it all feels extra magical. #sponsored

Our first stop was Dolly Parton’s Stampede, the world’s most visited dinner attraction, and it’s easy to see why. The pre-show in the Stampede Saloon had us singing along to country and Christmas classics before we sat down for a four-course feast that could rival any holiday dinner. 🐴 

Then the arena came alive with 32 magnificent horses, trick riders, and dancers bringing the spirit of the season to life with a friendly North vs. South Pole rivalry, toys that come alive, and even Santa arriving in a horse-drawn sleigh. Pure holiday joy from start to finish! 🎅🏻 

Next up was the Titanic Museum Attraction, beautifully transformed into an Elegant Edwardian Christmas, giving Titanic the Christmas voyage she never got.  We each received a boarding pass with the name of a real passenger, explored the Grand Staircase, and even touched the icy 28-degree water.  The interactive exhibits made history come alive, and it was such an emotional, unforgettable experience for all of us. 

And to end the weekend, we dove into adventure at Pirates Voyage Dinner & Show.  Led by Captain Blackbeard himself, the Crimson and Sapphire crews battled for treasure with acrobatics, mermaids, fire stunts, and even a sea lion! Between the four-course pirate feast and the jaw-dropping stunts, it was nonstop fun and the perfect grand finale to our Pigeon Forge weekend. 🏴‍☠️ 

 This trip reminded me that time together really is the best gift. Add Pigeon Forge and these incredible attractions to your holiday must-do list this season. ❤️

Comment “Pigeon Forge” and I’ll send you links to grab your tickets before they sell out!
