Last Sunday (6/6/10) was our 7th year anniversary. There were a million and one things that I actually wanted us to do but in the end we just managed to have a quick dinner and went to No Black Tie for a show, and even that we didn’t get to stay till the end coz Greg had to work the next day. So I thought we’ll go to somewhere special for a romantic dinner so I actually spent almost the whole day looking up on the www. for somewhere to go. I did narrow it down to 3 places but still couldn’t decide till he came home from his base check that evening, that would be at around 8pm… 
Then I saw an update from one of my friend in FB, that Rozz Ritzmann will be singing in NBT and I know that she quite good. So I thought that’s nice, we could go there after dinner.. But then my friend told me that we have to be there by 10pm for the show… Which means we had to have quite a quick dinner.
So after Greg picked me up we drove down to town and ended up in Nero Vivo (where Bijan used to be) for dinner. Luckily the food was good. Greg had a steak with Foie gras on some vinegar sauce and I had Pappardelle with lamb ragu, really enjoyed that. Even the wine that the waiter recommended was good too. We did try to take photos of the food and us at the restaurant but it was too dark, can hardly see anything. After dinner we shoot off to NBT for Rozz singing her rendition of Barbra Streisand songs. She was not too bad except I must agree with my friend that her trying to sing Barbara is a little too ambitious… But then again… it is Barbara you are trying to sing dear!! Greg was taken by surprise that we were there to see a drag queen sing Barbara… I wonder what he thought we were going to watch…. I would have loved to stay, she was beginning to sing my favorites but Greg was ready to go already… 
He has to wake up very early for work the next day. So that was our impromptu anniversary date… I noticed as the years go by, our anniversaries are getting more and more… impromptu… LOL! That’s normal rite?
So a friend ask me, “7 years… How ah?”
How ah… Like in my LO, much have changed, we have definitely changed… In fact this anniversary had me thinking quite a bit… which brought me to remember something very unpleasant that happened to us 1 year ago around this time. We were so close to not celebrating this years’ anniversary… That was a very difficult time for me. So yes, 7 years is not easy… 3 kids and all. I’m surely not the same girl that stood in the church and said “I Do”. So much of tears and laughter, so much that I have lost and gained (especially around my waist and belly, they never seem to go away). Most importantly is… “I Still Do”
It’s like they are trying to outdo themselves…. not that we are complaining tho… They are just really fun and they just love to entertain. And we, just happen to be SO, SO lucky. AND this year we are just SUPER DUPER lucky I must say…. All we got was an invitation card that we are invited to celebrate their 5th anniversary. A list of things that we need to pack and our passport with a 6 months validity period. Venue is a secret! That really sent us all guessing and all excited!! 
Some of us guessed it right, most of us only found out when we arrived at the airport.
