Happy Happy Happy Anniversary- 10 years WOW!

Kent and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary on January 2nd. I can't believe Kent and I have been married for TEN years. Wow, it really did go by fast. We really wanted to do something fun and cool for our tenth anniversary, but finances got in the way so we had to put away ideas like trips to Hawaii and cruises to Mexico. But we still did have a lot fun. My parents took the kids on Friday morning so we had the whole day to ourselves. We went to the temple and did a session first and then we headed to the Luxor where we rented a room. The Utes were scheduled to play their championship game at five and I promised Kent we would watch it. We watched in the hotel room and it was actually nice cuddling up to my sweetheart even though football isn't really my thing. After ten years of marriage to a huge football fan it does start to rub off on you a little, and I was excited when Utah won. After that we went out to a late dinner at my favorite restaurant, Joe's Crab shack. I think the economy is hitting everyone hard because at 9:30 on a Friday night we were the only people in the restaurant. It was cool it was like our own private restaurant just for us. We had plans to hit the strip after that, but it was eleven and we decided to head back to the hotel. One hour later we actually made it into the hotel (seriously, there is a major parking problem at the Luxor). That morning we slept in (yea, no kids) checked out at 11:00, and went out for a late breakfast at Denny's. We had a very nice time and maybe it wasn't the Bahamas but it was still pretty awesome. These last ten years have been crazy, but I wouldn't trade them for anything. And unlike some sad couples who after this long feel like their drifting away from there spouse, Kent and I have never been closer and I am very excited to see how the next ten are going to turn out.
