I'd have been disappointed, too, Sage. And funny thing is I can see exactly how it might kinda sorta slip through the cracks like this.
Our first "post" wedding anniversary came just 2 months after bomb #3...oh the torture of choosing a card!!
No gifts (which we usually do...mostly joint purchases for the house...how romantic )...but dinner out.
Now with work and school woes, the holidays looming, and your "usual" way of celebrating (trip) not planned for the actual date this year...maybe some uncertainty on both your parts as to just HOW to handle it...TOO big a deal? Too LITTLE a deal?
I think you did just fine. Sure you went ahead and DID buy stuff to celebrate that day (vs putting it off)...but it's not like you brought in a home dental kit for crying out loud!!'
