What did we do to celebrate? First we dropped Caylen off at mom and dad's and she spent the night! That was her first night away and boy, was it tough. After we dropped her off, we went out to a sushi/hibachi grill place near here. It was really good, and I had been craving some sushi. We got sushi as an appetizer, then we ate the salad, soup, and hibachi grilled food. Man, we were STUFFED! After that we grabbed our fortune cookies and went back to the Bville. We went to the local movie rental place going out of business and looked to see if there was anything good. The prices were not that great! I guess they don't need to get rid of stuff too bad! I mean, they were marked down by a couple dollars from what you could get them normally. In my opinion, it wasn't worth it. So, went home, exchanged gifts (5 years traditional gift is wood), and watched Lie To Me on Hulu, and it was reaaalllly good too. We had some cake that Brandon had bought from a store here, like we always do, and it was reaaalllly good too. Then, we hung around on the internet and went to bed. Nothing too magical, but really we treat each other like it is our anniversary most every day, so that's what's important!
Anyway, getting back to exchanging gifts...... We went home and exchanged gifts, and I got Brandon some nice wooden spoons for the kitchen, since wood is the traditional gift for the 5th year. He got me the most wonderful present though, and card! It just made me melt.... The card was one of those long sappy ones and he had a very sweet message at the end. The gift was a wooden plaque with a flower carved into it, and hooks at the bottom for keys and such. So pretty, and so me! He did much better than I did at the gift, but it's okay because for our first anniversary I rocked the gift. The first anniversary's traditional gift is paper, so I gave him some pre-Castro Cuban cigars. Awfully hard to top that one!
