MY DH and I celebrated our 14th wedding anniversary last night! We have been together for almost 20 years altogether. We didn't go anywhere, I just cooked a nice dinner for him. I prepared some Ribeye steaks and fried some potatoes, and veggies. It is one of his favorite meals. While I was cooking dinner, he came home from work with a bouquet of a dozen red and white roses! He tried to be sneaky and scare me by waving them in front of my face while I was at the stove..LOL He can be silly at times! Getting flowers for me is very unusual of him to do, so imagine my surprise!! I think he knew I was feeling kind of down the last couple of days, because of the 3 year anniversary of my moms passing on the 11th of October. So YES those roses sure brightened my day, and how did I thank him?

  • I fell asleep in the recliner watching tv and I woke up at 12:30am, and he was already in bed asleep! LOL Is the Honeymoon OVER or what? LOL

Congratulations on 14 yrs! The flowers sound like a wonderful surprise. Those kind of surprises are always good, though!

ROFL! Congratulations on your anniversary. It's nice to see your husband still tries to sneak a surprise in on you after all these years. He's a keeper.....

Congrats on the anniversary!! How wonderful to get flowers, and roses at that!!! I LOL @ how you "repaid" him!!! Too funny!! I'd say you two have a great relationship if you can fall asleep in the recliner and he goes to bed on your annivsary! Be sure you take pictures of the flowers and scrap 'em, and tell the story, you'll find it really funny in a few years!

I DID take some pictures, and yes I already thought about making a page for them...LOL

Congrats on your anniversary! The flowers sound wonderful! I got a chuckle at how you paid him back. To funny.

I am glad that you both marked the occassion. As for your version of thank you and his being OK with it, isn't that what a good marriage is about. If I had an inquiring mind, I'd ask the obvious... but I won't, LOL!

Hugs and congrats, M-C

awwww... you just reminded me... 4 days until our anniversary.... eeek! I gotta do something!!!

Congratulations on your 13th anniversary! Roses do seem to lift one's spirits. I love the way you spent your evening! That is mine and DH's favorite evening! LOL

Oh Linda! I'm a very sentimental gal and had to wipe away a tear now -silly hey? Anyways...I love flowers too. Got a bunch of sunflowers from DH for my b'day a few days ago. Sometimes simple gestures on special days mean so much more. Glad you had a wonderful anniversary.
