Happy Anniversary!

Keith and I celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary over the long holiday weekend.  We enjoyed the fantastic weather and spent a lot of time outside.  We went to Point Reyes and saw the lighthouse and then drove over to Napa Valley.  In Napa we ate lunch at an outdoor cafe and it was so sunny and warm I was worried I might get a sunburn.  After lunch we got 2 bags full of treats from our favorite bakery (Bouchon) and then went on a hike.  I thought the hike would take about 45 minutes and would be more like a romantic walk ... but it really took about 2 hours and left Keith and I dripping with non-romantic sweat.  We still had fun and cooled off during the second half of the hike through the redwoods.  On our actual anniversary (Tuesday) I worked from home and watched the Inauguration on TV for most of the morning (since my boss was in DC attending in person).  That night Keith and I went to dinner at Gary Danko and ate ourselves happy with our 5 course dinner of delicious food.  At the end of our meal our waiter brought out a special anniversary dessert for us (even though we had just devoured a chocolate souffle and a chocolate caramel mousse). 

Happy Anniversary, Keith!  I love you!
