June 4, 2011

Yesterday Pete and I celebrated our 6th anniversary! I can't believe it has been six years already....I also can't believe it has only been six years, ya know?!?!?

The morning of our wedding in 2005 Pete ran a 5K wearing a pink skirt, tank top, and visor while carrying a pink wand (thanks to his groomsmen and Jen Wheeler).

We've run the same race - Run for the Nun - every year since then! But this year it fell on our actual anniversary day so it was extra special. That, and it was Ellie's first 5k! Ellie and I walked it in the back with the other strollers but daddy ran it and came in 3rd place overall!


We didn't do anything special during the day - other than try to enjoy being lazy. For dinner we went to the Windy Corner Market - a new venture by the folks who own Holly Hill Inn and Wallace Station. The food did not disappoint and it was casual enough that we felt fine having an infant in a car carrier along with us.

You can't see in the picture just how cute Ellie looked for our dinner out so here's a close-up:

That was about it for our weekend festivities. This afternoon we hung out at Joanne and Jerry's for a few hours before going to our neighborhood ice cream social. There are many new infants in Fairway so it was good to meet our neighbors and put names with all the familiar faces!

Congrats on celebrating your 6th! It was our 6th anniversary this year as well! Love the pics, but can't help but chuckle at the pic of Pete holding Ellie at the end of the race. It looks like he's nursing her! Haha.
