3 Wonderful Years

Saturday, July 12, 2008
We celebrated 3 wonderful years of marriage! I cannot believe it's been 3 years already! This also means we've lived in MO for 3 years! We had a great anniversary. My sister came and watched Steve for us (yay for having a sis close by!!) and we went into St. Louis to Live Off the Levee. Every year St. Louis has this month long Celebrate St. Louis each weekend of July. It's normally on the riverfront and called Live On the Levee, but since the river is completely flooded (up to the stairs of the Arch) they had to move locations and rename the event! So we started by eating dinner at the Sauce Cafe, where each Saturday a different St. Louis restaurant features a meal. Unfortunately, it wasn't that good! I think we'll stick to our traditional Cheesecake Factory next year! But after we ate, we watched a free concert and fireworks! A country group I've liked forever, Lonestar, came and put on a great concert. Big points to Jesse, a very non-country fan, for sitting through the entire concert! The fireworks were amazing (even though we couldn't get a picture to do them justice!). It was a fantastic night to celebrate the past 3 years together! I love you Jesse!

Here we are before leaving...3 whole years together! Jesse got me those lovely flowers (on the right) that match my kitchen!! He also got me chocolates and pina colada mix!! yum yum! He did so well!

We had a big storm right before getting to the concert, and then a little drizzle that lasted 5 minutes, but other than that the night was gorgeous! This is the stage, with the Arch in the background.

A cheesy self taken snapshot!! So cute!

Lonestar live in concert!!

And again...I could never get a very good, clear picture!

Some more Lonestar.

And some more! I kept trying to get a decent picture!

My digital zoom shot!

And finally, the fireworks!
