Before heading out for our anniversary weekend outing!March 14th was a our 3rd anniversary! I tried to pack a punch of surprises for my wonderful husband.
I started the morning by surprising Dustin with a mixed cd titled "Love you like a long song baby" featuring songs representing the past 3 years our life, a PS I Love You shower gel, and a box of 36 KitKats, one for each month we have been married! Though I'm sure those KitKats will be gone in about a month.
We celebrated by going out to dinner at a place called Osaka House in Vancouver. It's a Tepanyaki type Japanese restaurant that we had a groupon for and it was... meh. Hahahaha. A little disappointing and just made us CRAVE the real Tepanyaki restaurant in Utah. We also got cupcakes because Sweet Tooth Fairy cupcakes are a tradition for our anniversary, but there is no Sweet Tooth Fairy here. And we miss her. :( The cupcakes were actually disappointing, much like the dinner.
Because the dinner and cupcakes were disappointing, we went to Sonic for giant Dr. Peppers with Vanilla and to Sheridans for some amazing frozen custard. Definitely made up for the disappointments.
For the weekend I surprised Dustin by coming home from work early and told him to pack an overnight bag for a stay at the Portland White House bed and breakfast! So here is a flooding of pictures of our room, bathroom with a jacuzzi tub and double headed shower, chocolates, and homemade cookies!
For dinner we went to Stanford's by the Lloyd Center. It was SOOOO good. Delicious prime rib and baby back ribs. I got a pic of the ribs but the prime rib was gone before I could snap a picture. It was just that good.
We went and saw Wicked at the Keller Auditorium and it was SO Awesome! I love that show. Love it. I wanted to cry when it started cuz I was so excited. I snuck a picture before it started... shh, don't tell.... it's a horrible picture, but... it's a picture!
We ventured into downtown Portland on St. Patrick's Day for a relaxing couples massage. It was way nice! The spa was underground, nice and quiet. We were greeted with strawberries and chocolate, rose petals on the massage tables, and felt so relaxed! Then we went to Tigard for some Godiva chocolate and Cheesecake Factory!
Mango Key Lime Cheesecake.... heaven in my mouth!
My last surprise for Dustin was that I woke up early the day ticket sales started and bought us tickets to a Mariners vs. Red Sox game this summer up in Seattle. His two favorite teams! Now the only tricky part will be figuring out what to wear! Mariners gear or Red Sox?! Not that they're the best seats ever (hey, we're still poor grad students!), but they are pretty good seats... First base view, row 1 (in our upper section), seats 1 & 2. I'm the best wife ever. Just sayin'.
My man's still smiling after 3 years of awesome. I love you baby and I'm excited for the next 3 + forever years to come!

Wow. Wow. WOW. I hope Nathan doesn't read this post or he will realize how lame our anniversaries are (and I'm in charge of planning this year). Maybe we can steal some good ideas from you. Did I mention WOW? I think you did a great job with planning and surprises.
Oh Brianne! You are amazing wife and I think I'm going to call you to get ideas about Montana's birthday coming up. I miss you so much and we will definitely have to catch up soon!!!
