Anniversary, Part 3 - The Date

After we were done at the zoo, we went back to Lehi, got our car, and left Ashton with Grandma so that we could go on an anniversary date. First stop--fancy dinner at P.F. Chang's! We had never been there before, and oh boy was it good. I really liked the lettuce wraps and whatever kind of chicken I got...don't remember right now but it was really yummy! It wasn't exactly authentic Chinese food, but I don't know if it was really trying to be. Just very fancy and very yummy.

Next stop--Trafalga! Yeah, that doesn't seem like the most romantic thing to do on your anniversary, but we had a reason. When we got married, we were in the middle of the run of The Secret Garden in Provo, so we had to stay local--no honeymoon right away. So, one of the things we did that weekend in our mini, local honeymoon was go to Trafalga. It was fun then, and it was fun this time, too! We played some arcade games and we went mini-golfing in an indoor, black-light course. It was so cool! We even got to go on two 4-D rides. It's like a 3-D movie, where you wear the glasses and everything, but the movie is of some sort of roller coaster. So as you watch the 3-D movie, it's like you're zooming along this roller coaster. And then the 4th D comes in because your seat rumbles and tilts and jerks around, and there's wind and heat and sound effects...it is seriously like the coolest thing ever! It's almost like being on a roller coaster! I seriously screamed in parts, it was just so awesome. You could never imagine how awesome--you just have to try it. Then we ended the night with some lovely Dippin' Dots for dessert, and went back to pick up Ashton.

Good date right? Well, it was even better because when we got back to Ashton, Tyler had a big bouquet of flowers waiting for me! They were so beautiful, and it's been so long since I've done anything with flowers and I LOVED them! (How could I not? Tyler's aunt, Tami, is pretty much the best ever!)



All my favorite flowers! Tulips and roses and freesia...



...and hydrangeas and cherry blossoms tucked underneath...



...and orchids, and those purple poppy-looking things that I can't remember the name of... :)







What a crazy, fun anniversary! Happy 3 years to us!!!
