This weekend Bryan and I went to New York City to celebrate our anniversary. We had a great time. Below is our attempt at a self-portrait in Times Square (as you can see, we didn't manage to capture much of the view).
I've wanted to see the Broadway musical Wicked for a long time. In fact, we had tickets to go when Beth and Jason were here over Thanksgiving, but as luck would have it, the stage hands happened to go on strike that week and Broadway shut down. This weekend we finally got to see it. It was totally entertaining. The music was great. Bryan even enjoyed it.
We also went and saw a play called Boeing-Boeing. We liked it even more than Wicked. Bradley Whitford, who played Josh Lyman in The West Wing, was one of the stars. The all-star cast had great chemistry and we laughed our heads off. It was well worth it.
We also spent some time at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
It was a great weekend -- we definitely celebrated in style. And as if that wasn't enough, when we got home, there was a package waiting for me. For an anniversary gift, Bryan got me a signed first edition of my favorite book -- The Far Pavilions by M. M. Kaye. I have it proudly displayed in our living room already. For my gift to Bryan, I had his law school diploma matted and framed.
I am so lucky to have Bryan. He's wonderful, and this has been such a great year. I'm looking forward to many more to come!
