Ascend Prime Anniversary Dinner

We celebrated our 24th wedding anniversary by going to Ascend Prime Steak and Sushi in Bellevue. The restaurant is located on the 31st floor of an office tower in downtown Bellevue.

The view was amazing. We were there during sunset and the skies were pretty clear.

The clientele was a bit strange. J was expecting an older crowd. There were three young Chinese couples. The young ladies were taking selfies most of the time. One of the young men was dressed in a sweatshirt and sweatpants. The service was top notch. We had more than one waiter. We enjoyed chatting with the younger one. 

J had a hamburger and I had salmon. The steak sizes were quite large and the prices were very high. 

My dessert was served with dry ice which was fun and dramatic. 

I have a video of the dry ice but it needs a bit of editing in order to share it. 

Will we go back? I'm not sure. I really loved the view. I wonder if they would allow you to just have dessert?

My great find!

I was going to write a post about my amazing find at the thrift store today but then I decided to write about my ultimate find.... my husband J.

Today is my 13th Anniversary! J and I were married in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada on May 16, 1998. I love my husband. He is brilliant, funny, a fantastic father, and a great support to me.

This is him playing with our boys and a friend, taken a few years ago. I'm so glad that God brought our lives together. In fact, our wedding bands have this inscription - Deus Nos Iunxit - which is Latin for "God has joined us together."

I don't have our wedding photos in digital format but here is one to share. Pin It

What kind of wife am I?

In honour of me and hubby celebrating our 10th anniversary today, I found this hilarious link about rating a wife in 1939.

I've got LOTS of demerit points, especially that cold feet one!

I'd love to share a picture of our wedding day but our scanner isn't working. :(Pin It
