3 years of marital bliss

For one reason or another Halie and I haven't been able to have our "official anniversary dinner" until last night (over a month late). Halie was really sweet and planned a fancy dinner for us at home. She really pulled out all the stops... candlelight, wine, and we ate on our china for the first time ever! I told her that this is how I always envisioned marriage - her serving me a good hot meal in the dining room in a dress and high heels. :) Just kidding, but it really was probably the most romantic thing she has ever done for me. She also capped it off with cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory! What a great memory!

Don't take it for granite!

It's been a while since we've posted--so sorry! A couple of weeks ago we got granite counters put in our kitchen! We have been wanting to do this for a couple of years now, but there were some other projects that came first. :) It turned out to be quite a big job from going to the granite warehouses to pick out our slabs, choosing a new backsplash, picking out a new sink & faucet--but it was all worth it! I think we have finally cleaned up all the dust that filled our kitchen and house too! Here are some before & after pictures--notice how "white" our kitchen used to be!
