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. 🙂

If you haven’t been to either, add them to your list! Dollywood has tons of great rides and shows (we are season pass holders so go often!) and Downtown Flavortown has amazing food, an arcade and duck pin bowling. They were kind enough to have us come visit and eat with them. 

Are you going anywhere fun this summer?

We spent a few days at Natchez Trace (part of @thousandtrails), and it was exactly what we needed—peaceful, fun, and full of charm. #100daysofcamping

✨ Lake strolls
⛳️ Mini golf showdowns
🏀 Basketball games
🔥 Campfire s’mores
🦆 duck feeding
…and plenty of unplugged moments together 💛

This spot truly has it all—whether you’re glamping, RVing, or just looking for a getaway that blends nature and comfort.

😎 90’s summer loading….. If you grew up in 😎 90’s summer loading…..

If you grew up in the 90’s like me, you know we had THE BEST summers. They were simple, but magical. Yes sometimes we got bored and fought with our friends, but the freedom and fun was so memorable. 

In today’s world of screen time and filling every second of the day with “fun” for our kids so they never have to be bored, it makes me sad that they won’t experience what we did. So I am trying to recreate a 90’s summer the best way I can.

Will we still travel? Of course, it’s my job. But when we are home, I’m not filling every second with fun. I’m making her figure it out. Read a book. Do some chores. Then just…go. Play. Be a ten year old while I work. Then in the evenings we can play some more, together, while I tell stories of all the crazy and fun things I did as a kid during those special 90’s summers. ☀️ 🩷
