This past Tuesday, the 14th, was our 2 year wedding anniversary. It's pretty hard to beat what we did last year, which was go to the Tulip Festival (posts 1, 2, and 3) and stay overnight at a bed and breakfast. But we still had a good anniversary this year. We went to eat Italian food at La Rustica in West Seattle. It's right next to the shoreline, so we had a good view from our table. We walked outside a little bit after dinner, but it was a little cold and windy, so we went back home after a few minutes. We exchanged gifts at home. Troy gave me a Sounders mug for me to drink out of at work and some tulips and I gave him some clothes.

Last night we went to see the musical CATS, by Andrew Lloyd Webber. It is the second longest-running show in Broadway history, surpassed by Phantom of the Opera in 2006. CATS played a total of 7,485 performances on Broadway.

It's based on the book of short stories by T.S. Eliot called "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats," which I remember reading when I was in music class in middle school. So I went in knowing there wouldn't be much of a plot, just a lot of songs about individual cats. I thought it was really entertaining, with great songs and costumes. We got fairly cheap seats in the lower level on the far right side and we had a fairly decent view since our seats were on a little raised platform that was probably added to sell more seats.

It was a nice 2 year anniversary and I'm looking forward to spending many more years with my husband.
