the anniversary….for me + mr. re-nest, we celebrate two big ones a year: the wedding anniversary + our dating anniversary. (i’ll pause for the eye roll or the “awww!”) and, i admit: when the wedding anniversary comes around, i feel major pressure to come up with something totally awesomesauce for him….and i usually panic at the last minute. (eek!)
