So our anniversary came and went. Unfortunately, we didn't do anything terribly exciting. I guess I should also mention that at the beginning of this week, I developed a nasty cold sore, so it kind of put a damper on any kind of romantic mood. It's pretty sad that I couldn't even kiss my boyfriend on our anniversary. Anyhow, we made the best of it. Doug had a whole thing planned and my cold sore messed it up, so oops. So instead we had a very lazy Saturday morning. We finally emerged around 2:00 that afternoon. Had a late lunch at Jerre Anne's then we headed over to my parent's to pick up a movie and went to Target. Then back to my house where we had dinner with my family and we sat over here watching a moving until midnight. By the time we got home we were so tired that we went straight to bed.
Doug's actual plan was that we were going to have pictures taken yesterday. See how my cold sore ruined it? Even Doug wasn't dumb enough to think that I would allow my picture to be taken with that on my lip. And I think he was planning to take me out to dinner or something. Oh well. We had a nice weekend together and that is what is important.
And what did I finally decide to do? Well, Doug has been talking about wanting a recliner pretty much since he's moved, so I told him that I would go in half on one with him. So it is kind of my anniversary present to him. We picked one out yesterday at Sav-On and we are going to put it on layaway sometime this week I think. It's only $380, so that's not too bad. But it is our first big mutual purchase. It's kind of exciting! :-)

Yay! I'm glad you had a good anniversary. It sucks about the cold sore, but how cute that he wanted your picture taken together!
I like the joint purchase thing too. That in itself probably felt like an event, a celebration of your relationship! Except, now you two have to fight over sitting in it! :)
Technically, it'll be his chair. I am perfectly happy claiming the couch. Especially since we got a couple of end tables and now there is a lamp and a candle warmer right on my end of the couch. It is quite cozy! :-) But I'm sure once we actually have the chair it'll be a different story. The chair we picked out is black microfiber, and the throw I made for the back of the couch has a lot of black, so I think I'm going to have to get black throw pillows for the couch too. It's so much fun buying this kind of stuff! :-)
