Married one year

Ya know, I thought I had this all typed out and just had to had pics...nope I was wrong. So now I kind of feel like a bad wife. But without further delay, lets talk our first anniversary. We had two, well three, dates to celebrate our anniversary. I mean, who doesn't like to celebrate multiple times. Kind of like the birthday week concept. Anyway we went to the Melting Pot in Hoboken, which was my date to him. Neither one of us had been there and it was a treat. So we ordered a cheese fondue appetizer and with that they gave fruit, crackers, and bread for dipping. Need I say more?? Dinner was several different meats in a Merlot wine and Dessert...Dessert was honestly the best part and I'm not typically a dessert person . We had a sample of rice crispy,  fruit, cheese cake, yummy marshmallows covered in graham cracker crust and I should have wrote this sooner, because there was plenty of deliciousness but I'm forgetting. After dinner we walked off some, yea right, and looked at the city from the Jersey side.

On to date number two. Matt found this adorable restaurant in the town of Goshen, but apparently the town of Goshen is closed on Monday night, so he found another restaurant, even more adorable. We ended up at II Tosero. A small Italian family run place right in town. The food was amazing. Matt had chicken parm, like there is another option, and I had pasta with....god I can't remember. Lets blame my memory loss on being pregnant. Anyway what I do remember the food was phenomenal and the waiter was super kind. He couldn't have been much older than 16, that kid new his menu and his food. He even brought us out salads because the dinner was going to take longer than expected. Not that either one of us noticed or were in a hurry. Well babe, thanks for the date and for missing Monday night football. I do remember we went on a Monday. Thanks to shift work, its highly unlikely that we will ever celebrate anything on the actual day.

And finally date number three. Surprise Surprise we had dinner again.  This time at Friday's on Matt's parents. I think we were super busy running around Middletown and decided to do dinner out. Fridays was like any other, but I thought it was funny that Matt wanted to order a beer. He got carded but didn't have his wallet. Apparently Eli enjoys leather and decided to munch on it after taking it off the counter. Sorry love, you didn't get a beer. But you did get a new wallet after what 15 years?? We could have worked a scheme if we thought ahead of time and I could have ordered your drink. Despite turning 30 this year, they still carded you. xoxo

The great thing about celebrating our anniversary this year was that we did it three times. Most of the time we don't get to eat dinner together or even have the same days off. So to do it three times for a special event was priceless. Next year we are taking a vacation! 

Up next: Matt's 30 blows birthday party. Which we already had but I am playing catch up. I'd like to pat myself on the back for my menu. My plan was to keep it a surprise but I suck at that. More to come, hopefully before November!
