Happy 3 Year Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary Joe English!!!

On Saturday, August 13th we decided to exchange gifts and go out to dinner a little early since our anniversary was on a Tuesday (today!). We didn't do anything crazy, we went to Tyler's Taproom and on the way home picked up a Chick-fil-a Cookies and Cream Milkshake. Tyler's is one of our fun places close to the house. It was nice to just get out of the house as we'd been working inside on the guest bathroom all day.

Joe and I have been married now for 3 years! We follow the traditional anniversary gift ideas and this year was Leather. These were the gifts I purchased for Joe:

Gift #1

Leather Fossil Watch

Gift #2

Sunglasses

Yep Michael Westen style!

Gift #3 was given to him a little early (about 2 weeks ago)... Jason (the photographer) and Megan Self (creative director) were in on this little secret! On Saturday, July 11th the 3 of us snuck away to the Eno River State Park in Durham, NC to do a little project of our own. We spent a few hours at the State Park taking pictures. Initially I wanted to replace just one of the pictures that Joe has of me at his desk from a few years ago... Then I thought well we need some pictures in our bedroom and decided it would be neat to put a few of the pictures above his dresser. So if you ever want to see them you will have to come into our master bedroom.

Gift #3

Pictures of his Bride

I gave him the option to select a new one for his desk if he wanted to and he actually picked the center one...

These are the gifts Joe purchased for me!

Timex Running Watch

Pink!!!

Leather Hip Bag

Which some of you have called a fanny pack! Looks much better on, than laying flat. You'll definitely see some future pictures with it on!
