a second anniversary celebration

I have a new belief that the family should take off work on all birthdays and anniversaries. Robin and I hadn't discussed this prior to my birthday and he had a day full of meetings scheduled. So, we counted Sunday's trip to the Arboretum and a nice sushi dinner yesterday as my birthday celebration. Next year, we'll treat ourselves to a mid-week day-long celebration for my Tuesday birthday.

Robin was able to take today off and it was great to spend our second anniversary together! We treated ourselves to brunch, poked around several stores, shared an afternoon milkshake at Highland Park Pharmacy, took Harper for her first visit to the Nasher Sculpture Center and enjoyed Italian take out for dinner. It was a full day, but we really enjoyed the extra time together and our new tradition of work-free birthdays and anniversaries.

Sweet Harper had a full day and decided she was not in the mood for a photo session.
