Christmas Date

Saturday night Brad and I went on our annual Christmas Date- a tradition dating back eight years to our very first Christmas together when we didn't yet spend the holidays with each others' families and wanted a special time together to exchange gifts. We don't do presents on the Christmas Date anymore, but we always make time to share something special together. :)
This year we went to see one of our very favorite artists, Andrew Peterson. His Christmas cd, Behold the Lamb of God, is our very favorite of his work to date, and this was his Behold the Lamb of God tour! We've been excited about this concert since we found out almost a year ago that he was going to be in our (relative) area! And we were not disappointed. I paid the slightly higher "VIP" ticket price and we got these really great seats in the center of the third row- about 15 feet from him! It was perfect! We had a great time and it was a really meaningful show that brought us back once again to the real meaning and the true purpose and story of Christmas. If you haven't heard this cd, you should download it today! :)
Still together, still happy, still in love- been together now almost 9 years (thanks for the correction Mom; I'm too tired for math!)! Time flies when you're having fun. :)

How can it be 10 years when you only graduated from AHS in 99? You met in your first year at HC, right?
