Just as you would expect, my husband pulled out all the stops for our first Anniversary which was June 21st. Neither of us could take more than a day or two days off work so a long trip was out of the question. All wedding anniversaries have a traditional gift, the first anniversary traditional gift is paper.
In keeping with this tradition, 5 days before our anniversary Kip handed me a large envelope. Inside was a beautifully put together detailed plan day by day of what he was planning for the following weekend to celebrate our anniversary. By giving me the plan on paper (Kodak picture prints so they will last forever) he had kept in the tradition of paper! So here was the plan, the first day we were to drive to San Antonio where Kip had made reservations for a hotel Suite for the weekend. On day two which was he had tickets for Sea world but only until 4:00 p.m. as we had to get back to the hotel to get ready for a dinner at one of the 5 star restaurants right on the River Walk in San Antonio and our Cadillac Escalade limo was going to pick us up at 7:00 and Champaign to begin at 7:05. Day three Kip had scored a VIP box at the outdoor Verizon Amphitheater in San Antonio to the Rascal Flatts and Taylor Swift concert!
Needless to say I was totally shocked with his planning although I should be used to it by now. We had such a great time the entire weekend and since the VIP box had room for 4 we invited Katie and Juan to join us for the concert. We ordered food and drinks right at our table and had servers that brought it all to us which was a totally different concert experience for me LOL. Just so you know along with the main gift I gave to Kip, my "paper" portion of the gift was having a message in a bottle built and shipped to him that had a scroll inside with a heart felt message to him from me but its top secret :) I can't wait until next year Baby!
