Fourteen years on the 14th!! It was sort of our "Golden Anniversary," and the modern gift for this year was gold. I thought that was kind of cool! We were lucky to both be home to celebrate today. In the morning, Erik wanted me to open one of my presents right away. He bought me a new mug that says "forever newlyweds." So cute!
Of course he wanted to exchange the rest of our gifts and cards right away! The traditional gift for 14 years is ivory. What kind of an ivory gift do you get a man?! I struggled for a little bit, but then had a great idea! I bought him Ivory soap body wash and Goldtoe socks! I also bought him white Adidas slides. He got my traditional anniversary rose from a different place! It was ivory and gold and was really pretty! He did a great job and also bought us ivory bed sheets. We had a good laugh when we tried to make the bed, and the sheets looked too small! He had bought "Split King" sheets! It was basically for 2 twin beds pushed together! He was so mad! I couldn't help but laugh!
In the afternoon, we golfed 9 holes at Apple Orchard. That's were we had our first date! I did alright. I told Erik I'd be really good if I knew what I was doing! I'm pretty athletic, but I don't know anything about form with golfing!
In the evening we went out to dinner at Gia Mia. We love this place! They have my favorite appetizer, honey whipped ricotta and toast! It was nice to spend time together!
