Celebrating 11 years....

That's right 11 years has come and gone since I married my sweetheart.  I always like to look back at all the things that have happened to us from whence we started up until now...we have experienced a lot and we keep going...
Our anniversary falls on a long weekend and it is right around school, so we usually stay close to home.  I was preparing a wonderful evening of enjoying the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra under the Sky concert, when Spencer told me to hold on...he might have other plans for us.  Sure enough he did.  We went to the Josh Groban concert instead.  It was a really good time.  We have actually never gone to a concert like this together before.  Josh puts on a good show.  Spencer bought me 12 roses: 11 red and one white (for good luck).  I love having fresh flowers.  I cooked a steak dinner with baked potatoes and salad and a vegetable along with some sparkling apple juice and a few candles lit.  We shared this fabulous dinner with our little bumpkins.  Then cleaned up and picked up the babysitter and were off. 
Here I am at the entrance of Rexall Place.  This is actually the first time that I've been here.  

Here is Josh singing on a mini stage in the middle of the floor, so we got a really good view of him from this point.  So did all those who have floor seats they were all turned around and out of their seats for this part. 

We checked out some of the souvenirs, but I couldn't bring  myself to spend that kind of money and I don't think that I would actually wear a shirt with a huge picture of Josh Groban on it.  I'll just stick to listening to his music.  I did however buy a book about this tour that is just filled with pictures; this will go in  my memory box along with the newspaper clipping about his concert and our ticket stubs. 

These are the flowers that I got and my keepsake book of this experience. 

Thanks Spencer for a wonderful anniversary celebration and for 11 wonderful years of marriage.
