On and Off

Our second anniversary this year was squished in among much activity and trips. As usual, Matt did an excellent job of making it a special night.
 
He bought me flowers...

He gave me a sweet card...

We went to The Cheesecake Factory for dinner...

We ate outside; the weather was perfect, the food delicious.

and 

We made a side trip to Niagara Falls and the Finger Lakes after our fishing trip to Lake Ontario.

King Salmon...cooked up nicely.

Ithaca, NY has some fabulous eats.

Needless to say, Matt was on top of his game.

Unfortunately, I was a little bit off. There were plans. Supplies were purchased for an especially nice home cooked meal. Other ideas were brewing for making it a fun date night at home, to make him feel loved and appreciated.

Somehow it didn't seem to come together. In all of the hubbub, I decided, "It'll happen. It'll come together soon enough. It doesn't have to be on the day or right by it. He'll appreciate it whenever I manage to work it into our schedule."

You got it. It took almost two months to follow through. :-/

I did give him a card on our day and our sentiments matched almost exactly! Now, I can also happily report that I made him a nice steak dinner to enjoy at home...and he thoroughly enjoyed it. :)

My first attempt at a T-bone; normally we grill Ribeye or NY Strip. #tryingouttheindoorgrill

Hey, I may be off, but I'm off in a good way ;)
