8 years

Recently Tyrell and I had our 8 year anniversary. Every year I am amazed at how fast time can fly! I really don't feel older than the day I married him, and it doesn't seem that long ago, but somehow 8 years have come and gone. We enjoyed the day, and gave each other gifts we made. Tyrell made me a bottle of "happy pills" since I am always saying I need to take a happy pill. You know for the moments in life when everything just seems to go wrong. Each pill has a happy memory or something sweet he loves about me inside the capsule. He said he bought a bottle of cinnamon pills and dumped out all the cinnamon and replaced it with little pieces of paper. I love them, and I have no idea what they all say, so when I open it it really does bring my mood up! I made him a 52 reasons why I love you book. I used a deck of cards, and put each reason on a card. I had lots of fun making and he seemed to like it (like he would tell me he didn't). Once the kids had gone to bed we ordered Texas Roadhouse to go, and had our own candle light dinner at home. I though it was more fun than actually going to the restaurant! Not to mention cheaper, since we had our own drinks and no fee to pay the babysitter. I look for to the next year with him, and all the rest to come!
