I was sat in the bath last Tuesday night shaving my legs, like you do!,when I remembered that the OH and I had forgotten our 5 year anniversary of being a couple. The date we first got together (the night after I dumped my ex! Ooops) was November 8th, 2005.
So upon realising this fact I shouted to my OH to pop to the bathroom as I had something to tell him. “it had better be important” he replied “as I am in the middle of doing something here” (he was in his office/xbox room). Charming, I thought. Anyway, when he reached the bathroom I told him we had forgotten and said “happy anniversary” and he laughed and asked how long had it been to which I replied “five years” and he said “that long?!”. Then he left, so i asked where my kiss was and he laughed! Well, how romantic was that! I seem to recall that on our first anniversary I was given a necklace and was taken out for a meal! How times have changed!
Anyway, it got me thinking about the last five years we have been together and I thought i would show this through photos taken from each year, to show how much we have changed from when we first got together to now!
January 2006 ( been together for 2 months)
Christmas 2006 ( been together 13 months)
Boxing Day 2007 (been together for 25 months)
Summer 2008 (been together for almost 3 years)
November 2009 (4 years)
Now 2010 (don’t have any of the two of us taken together recently!)
So all in all I feel 5 years was something to celebrate afterall, as quite a lot has happened during that time 🙂

Aww, that is so lovely to see. Five years is a big deal, blooming men. Once they’re all secure, they forget the romance, but the love is still there!
You are so beautiful in every picture (“,)

My OH always remembers our anniversary but never gets me anything!! Although he always promises me he will, cheeky monkey. I’m pretty sure he owes me about 5 presents now. Happy anniversary to you both!! 🙂
