Happy 7 years to us! Seven years ago on Halloween night, Thomas and I decided we should consider ourselves officially dating. We technically went on our first date a few weeks before, but nothing was official until Halloween. We dressed up as Jack and Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas (not those fancy-schmancy store-bought ones, either -- these babies were homemade) and Gravity Well played a concert in the Black Room (Thomas was the drummer).
Last Saturday, we celebrated (just a couple days early) our 7 years together. Thomas planned a fabulous night out for the two of us while my mom babysat Anna.

Ready for an evening out!
We started the evening with dinner at one of my favorite restaurants -- Carrabba's. Oh, and a prezzie!

Thomas said these were some of the best ribs he's ever had
We then proceeded to one of my most favoritest places in the Valley -- Kazimierz.

Instead of the usual bubbly to celebrate, we opted for sparkling shiraz. It was amazing!
Cheers!

Then, of course, came the three-cheese fondue...

And then, of course, more wine...

...and some more wine...

Needless to say, it was an amazing evening with my amazing husband.
Today, Thomas surprised me with some flowers. Gotta love that man!
The past 7 years have been so much fun, I can't wait to see what the next 70 have in store for us!
