Four Years Together

Last night, we celebrated our four-year anniversary with a dinner at The Grill on the Alley in Beverly Hills. Our actual dating anniversary was July 20, but the celebration itself had to wait a bit because of our crazy schedules. We decided to make a big deal out of this anniversary to celebrate the fact that next year at this time we will already have a new anniversary date!

We love dressing up to eat out, and The Grill on the Alley has the perfect ambiance for it. If you haven't been, we definitely recommend it! If you sign up for their mailing list, the Grill also sends you a $30 off coupon for the month of your anniversary and your birthday. They have awesome service and delicious, gourmet food. Terry always gets the lamb chops, and I love both the filet and the swordfish. My favorite part is always the side dishes - creamed spinach to die for and creamy garlic mashed potatoes. They even comped us a dessert for our anniversary!

After dinner we ventured a few blocks over (would have been a perfect walk if not for my crutches) to Nic's Martini Bar. Super trendy and not exactly romantic in atmosphere, the menu of martinis seemed endless. Terry tried a cucumber martini, and I had the "Pink Monkey," which essentially consisted of various fruity ingredients. I think other nights of the week they have live jazz music, which would have set the tone a little better, but the experience was still fun.

I feel so lucky to have spent the last four years with such a wonderful man, and I look forward to all the years to come! Less than a year to the wedding!
