Wedding Anniversary

Yesterday was mine and Ollie's first wedding anniversary. I can't believe that it has been a whole year already! I'm also very very glad that the weather on our special day was nothing like it was yesterday! I got soaked getting to work and my boot leaked! I had just dried out and warmed up when it was time to go home.

We went to The Olive Tree in Rainham on Saturday. It was fantastic. In reminiscence of our honeymoon we had bruschetta to start (Ollie's with mushrooms and mine with tomatoes) and Calzone for main course. It was the best calzone we've had in England, but it still wasn't as good as a true Roman one. It was a bit strange as it was actually served with a tomato sauce by the side and it had bolognaise inside! Still it was very yummy. The service was good on the whole and Ollie's chocolate brownie was lovelly.

Mum and Nan and Grandad also popped in on Saturday to drop off a card, some flowers and my gooseberry bushes. We also went to see the new gym which has opened up down the road. Even though it is very nice and new and does offer a better range of classes that I could actually go to, there's nothing that makes the extra money every month worth it and we figure that seeing as most people they were showing around were talking about transferring from Swallows then it may be a bit quieter to stick where we are!

Gemma popped over on Sunday to drop off a card and some more flowers. She had the exciting news that she is expecting her fourth baby! She had her 12 week scan last week and all is fine. We have arranged to go out with Ollie's dad and Anna at Easter as they will be moving to Ireland permanently on Easter Sunday.

So with all the excitement we didn't actually get any DIY done and I doubt that we will get much done this weekend as we are going to the Ideal Home Show on Saturday and it's Marc's birthday so I expect we will be popping to Whitstable on Sunday.
