Two years!

Josh and I celebrated our two-year anniversary last week. What a wonderful day!

The day started with a relaxing morning. We got ourselves ready and went to Wade's Cafe for breakfast. Josh tried the pancakes and I had the french toast. Their homemade maple syrup was amazing! Josh and I couldn't get over how good the food was. We felt like we were on vacation, because the weather was so beautiful (we ate on the patio) and the cafe felt far from home.





After that, we ran a couple errands and drove to Denver. We love going to the Cherry Creek mall; it's just so fun for us to walk around, see all the different people, and go into Neiman Marcus and pretend we can afford a $300 belt for Josh! One of my favorite parts was probably when Josh tried on sunglasses at the Diesel store.




We spent a good couple hours at the mall and then decided to go see Indiana Jones. I've never seen the past movies, but I did enjoy this one. After the movie, we went on a little walk along the path by the mall.




We were quite hungry by then, and we drove downtown to see what was for dinner. :) Josh had heard about a Mexican place called Lime, but we weren't quite sure where it was, so we decided to look around for something else. We approached the Brown Palace, which is an upscale hotel in downtown Denver, and went inside (we've been curious about it for a while). After looking around the inside of the hotel, we asked a couple of gentlemen if they knew where Lime was. They told us, and they said they had a courtesy shuttle service for their guests. I promptly told them we weren't guests of the Brown Palace, but one of the gentlemen said, "We also do it for people we like," so we followed our driver out to a Mercedes SUV and rode one mile in style to Lime. After arriving, we anticipated great food, and though we didn't enjoy the food as much as we'd thought, it was great to try it. It was 9:00 PM, and we walked the mile back to where we'd parked. The night weather was beautiful!

It was a fun and beautiful day and reminded me of all the little reasons I fell in love with my Josh. :) Sometimes we all need a day away to restructure our thinking and get back to a place of simplicity.
