Ian and I celebrated our ninth wedding anniversary on June19. The day started with a delicious breakfast at The Big Biscuit. With our bellies full, we headed to Paint, Glaze, and Fire Ceramics and Coffeehouse in Leawood, Kansas. The traditional wedding anniversary gift for nine years is pottery. We had reserved a table at Paint, Glaze, and Fire and came with a design in mind. We sat amongst the mothers, grandmothers, babysitters, and young children and got right to work.

The sketching was the easy part. When it came to tracing over our sketch with the paint, that's when the project got tricky. It took us three tries to get it just right.

After our pottery adventure, we grabbed a bite to eat at Houlihan's. Our meal was on the house since it took them over 20 minutes to bring us our food. It actually took them 20 min and 58 sec. We weren't going to be too picky, but the waitress came right up with our food and said it was on them!
Later in the evening, we headed to The Independence Square and sat on the terrace at Cafe Verona and enjoyed a delicious dinner, half-price wine, and a complimentary dessert. It was a wonderful day!
