4 Year Anniversary
So yesterday was my 4 year anniversary with Ben. The time has absolutely FLOWN by yet looking back it's been such an incredible journey! I am so thankful for him & all that he does for me! For our 4 year, he didn't tell me what we were doing. Nothing. Which would usually frustrate me but instead it just made it more exciting! When I returned from my 8:30 class, there was a HUGE vase of flowers on the table! I was SO EXCITED & so were my roomies! LoL! Later that afternoon he picked me up at 4:30 & we headed to Chicago. He chose a Greek restaurant called Santorini for us to dine at & let me tell you... it was both beautiful AND delicious! =) After eating, we found a place to park our car & then passed some carriages. I have ALWAYS wanted to go on a carriage ride but have never told Ben as far as I can remember. Anyways, I made a comment about the beautiful horses & how I had always wanted to go on a carriage ride. He said, "Yeah but wouldn't it be king of uncomfortable? And its cold outside." I agreed, disappointed. We crossed the street, walked past the horses, and walked about a half a block before Ben stopped and turned me around. "I think I made a wrong turn," he said. He then walked right up to the lady at the carriage & said, I have a reservation for 7:30." I WAS ECSTATIC! So we took an hour & a half ride carriage ride around Grant Park, Michigan Avenue, & other places in Chicago. It was SO relaxing & the city was BEAUTIFUL with all of the lights! It was nice to be able to enjoy the scenery & not worry about traffic. All in all, it was a romantic, relaxing evening that I will NEVER forget. I love Ben SO much & I look forward to all of the memories ahead!
