Happy Anniversary to Me!

This is such an appropriate post to follow on the coattails of "Romantic Gestures". My hubby and I just celebrated our 9 year wedding anniversary on Sept. 25th.

What did we do? Well, we went to my FAVORITE restaurant, The Cheesecake Factory and did some shopping. Great food, a shoe purchase (or two) and trying on clothes that make me look skinny...what more could a gal want?

We had a fabulous time. Why is it that when the anniversary rolls around I feel more giddy? Does anybody else get this? I even get giddy on the anniversary date when we started dating.

Oh well, I hope I never lose that school girl feeling. I get the tingling in my belly throughout the year as well. Like when my guy takes my hand and squeezes, a nice subtle, unspoken I Love You. Or, when he thinks I'm asleep and he comes to bed and runs his hand over my hair and my cheek and whispers, "I love you" or "You're so beautiful".

Man, do I have a good guy or what?

So, do you all still get that silly, tingling feeling with your mate? If so, how long have you been together? I think romance is the best emotion, action...whatever, in the whole world. I would hate to go through this life alone, having never felt this connection.

Since I'm in the lovey-dovey mood, I'll give away a really cool silver-plated bookmark to one lucky person who leaves me feedback!
