5 years

This year Mr. Incredible and I will be celebrating 5 years of marriage!

{August 2006, celebrating our engagement, admit it, you love my red eyes lol}

.

I felt convicted awhile back about taking vacations. People in Africa are starving to death, why should I drop thousands just for pleasure? Just plain wrong.

.

I decided that we would vacay just for big anniversaries, and other trips would be mission trips, (with maybe one family trip for pleasure, say Disney, one day).

.

We were planning on a trip for our 5th and 10th anniversaries, and so forth.

..

Well here we are a few short months away from our anniversary: buying/fixing up/decorating a new house, and starting our second adoption. Obviously both of these are very exciting and totally worth it, but it leaves our hands tied for our anniversary this April.

.

I think it is very important to make a big celebration of our anniversaries. Marriage is worth celebrating!

.

Any ideas as to how we can celebrate our anniversary without spending big bucks? I really wanted to go to Boston or Disney, but both trips would cost about 2k, (and that's only for a weekend trip). I want it to be really special since its our 5th...
