While I feel like our anniversary is a much bigger accomplishment than surviving yet another year- I freaking LOVE birthdays! It was an awesome day! I made cupcakes for school like a 3rd grader and brought them in to share (but you cannot possibly understand how much I love birthdays- It doesn't have to be my own birthday-I love other people's birthdays! And I wanted to share the fun!). I liked being at school on my birthday- Everyone said happy birthday :) When I went home Chris and I exchanged gifts. I got him an arm band to hold his phone while we go running and a hand exercise thing (he asked for it otherwise I'd still probably not know it existed) for while he drives. I also found some really cool looking DVD workouts for us to try. He got me 2 new necklaces and a pair of earrings (pictures to come!!!). He also found a used Wii and got Wii fit, Wii fit plus and mario. I LOVE THE WII!!! (last night I found Kung fu Wii fit- needless to say I stayed up late last night!!!)
Once I finally stopped playing Wii, Chris and I found a new (to us) restaurant in Champaign, Bacaro, that specializes in farm to table meals. We opted for the tasting menu since it was a special occasion. Seven courses of deliciousness! All the food was incredible. Chris and I both agreed our favorite part of the meal were the sauces. Each dish had the most amazing sauce paired with it. If I had to guess Chris' favorite was the paprika vinaigrette. It was fabulous. I tried to take pictures of the food but it was soo good that I got distracted and forgot. Here are a few of the dishes.
We had so much fun! I am so proud of us for surviving 3 years of vet school, travel and stress. Here is hoping for 50 more years of happiness.
Don't forget-Keep Calm and Carry On
