So as you know, I have recently gone back to work and let me just say ummmmmmmmm....... its been a bit.... well....... grueling...... (how's that for an expressive word?) So, I think for the first time in 20 years I kind of forgot our anniversary. I have been so tired, stressed etc.. that I didn't really put a lot of thought into it this year until this showed up Tuesday morning!!!!

What a surprise!! Two dozen BEAUTIFUL red roses... I was very surprised. Dave had left for work about an hour before. I was in the kitchen doing dishes and he popped around the corner with these roses (scared me to death) and surprised me! It TOTALLY brightened my day! They are the prettiest roses I have ever had! I hope they last a LONG time! I have never had TWO DOZEN before! Thank you Dave! Then he came home early from work (4:45-- this NEVER happens), had reservations to a great restaurant (Maggianos) and a great table outside... we broke the bank and got appetizers, and dessert with our dinner! It was awesome! :) Then we went to a movie... It was such a needed break. For about the first half hour I was feeling the stresses of life still and then about half way through dinner Dave had me laughing and talking and feeling groovy! :) It was so great to spend time with him and to remember how lucky I am to have a best friend who is there for me in good and bad times. I love Dave so much. I am so grateful that he married me!! What a wonderful husband he has been! :)
We are hoping to take a trip late in the summer just the two of us to REALLY celebrate the big 2-0! I can't wait!! :)

We hit 20 later this year as well. Can't believe how fast the time has flown. What a great milestone to have reached though.
Take a great trip later and live it up.
20 years!!! Dave is awesome as are you! Those Doxey boys are somthin' special!
Les! I feel like a loser..I didn't remember your anniversary. Wowzer! 20 whole years. Congratulations and happy anniversary.
First, is it our duty as siblings to remember anniversaries too?...I can hardly remember the birthdays of rich and em. Second, you all is old...20 years, if you remember, that's when Nintendo was the hot stuff! Duck Hunt truly brought us all together. Happy Days!
