Autumn has always been my favorite season, and now for the third time, I love it even more! On October 1, 2010 I married the Ginger, my best friend.
Like last year, we tried to follow the anniversary “themes”…year 1 = paper, year 25 = silver, year 50 = gold, etc. Cotton is for year two, and I think we did a pretty great job of following that! We stayed at a lovely bed and breakfast in the South Side of Pittsburgh, called the Morning Glory Inn (cotton sheets, towels…our version of the theme!).
Our room was in the attic suite, with tasteful and antique furnishings, very unlike it's past as the servants quarters in the 1860s. The best part about the inn was outside of it. An amazing little courtyard is encased by the historic building with plants everywhere and twinkling lights. It’s obvious to see why so many Pittsburgher’s choose to marry in the space.
Even though it’s only been two years, I love that so far we’ve tried to make our anniversary special. I get that as we get older, our lives will become more hectic in different ways (ie. kids) and it will be harder to keep this as important but I really hope we try to still celebrate the comittment we made to each other.
Now I’ve gotta starting thinking of ideas for next year…year three = leather (umm…I feel like either a hormonal 15-year-old boy or a dirty old man when I think about gifts for this theme!)
