Wedding Anniversary

It is two weeks more to our wedding day anniversary. Time flies very fast. This means, i have grown older and i want to call it as to grow wiser too. In a few days after this my husband and i would celebrate our first year anniversary and first Christmas together after officially married to each other. That is why i hope there is a miracle during this Christmas season as it is the first time to both of us celebrating it as husband and wife. I want to keep our 1st Christmas together and put it here for our kids later. For the time being, i only have our Christmas photo when we were still engaged last year 2009 which is six days before our red-carpet day!

I can't remember whether that year we had taken photos at home or not. All I can remember is everyone from both families was very busy preparing for our red carpet day. That is why i am looking forward for this year Christmas!!!

I may sound a little bit show off by telling you that we want to celebrate our wedding anniversary. For me, wedding anniversary is compulsory to every couple. That is what i learn from my parents. They have been married for almost 30 years. Next year, my parents will celebrate their 30th anniversary. They never celebrated it grandly but it is a must every year where they will wish each other and tell us about the date. Then, we will have 'makan-makan' for both of them. It is somehow will rejuvenating your married life. 

In my point of view, wedding anniversary is a must-in-list event every year because it is one of the celebrations that celebrate the continuation of our love for each other throughout the years. Therefore, the wedding anniversary deserves to be celebrated in a memorable way. As we celebrate our anniversary, it means we are renewing our annual renew of our commitment to one another.

I am very excited preparing myself for Christmas and our wedding anniversary. For candle light dinner would be no problem as i would do something on that day. The problem that i face now is the gifts. I can't think of any gifts for him. I have searched some of it from the internet and for 1st year traditional anniversary the gift that they suggest is something to do with paper. I have to think of it first and we will see what can be done with paper. I have to crack my coconut head. Maybe i want to make something for him. A gift made by myself. I got some ideas in the internet:

Photo Book. "I started a photo book with a picture of our wedding bands on the cover and inside was a picture of our hands together from our engagement pictures. Each year we will add a new picture for each year of marriage. The second picture was our hands on our wedding day. Then when kids enter our lives their hands can be included each year as well."

I will share my experience preparing for my wedding anniversary with you all. Not forgetting my Christmas gift for him too!!!   :)

Shopping Spree

Yesterday, my hubby and I went to the new Giant Supermarket which is in the Times Hotel building. We were quite bored at home and thought of shopping for baby Jho for this Christmas. As we were wandering at the supermarket, my beloved hubby stopped a lot at certain 'pit stop'. It had happened since last November, whenever we went for a shopping, be it a sight-seeing only or window shopping only, he would stop at any jewelery shops. To be exact he would see and started bargaining price for White Gold jewelery.

White Gold Ring

Necklace + Diamond

Necklace + Diamond [My Favourite]

Bracelet [He said it is too colorful for me]

Bracelet [Too expensive!]

It is difficult to find a just-nice size bracelet for me according to him. I would prefer something which is simple but nice to see and put on as long it is bought by him. For me, the price doesn't matter when it is FREE hehheee.... As a matter of fact, when the thing is bought by your beloved person, you will never want to know about the price. I am not razor type woman! Ceh...

Anklet [ Our choice ]

These are the white gold jeweleries which my hubby had surveyed so far. Whenever we had our window shopping, his pit-stops will be all the jewelery shops. Actually i never told him about what i like the most, but i do keep all my wish list in my own personal and confidential diary. For me, a beggar can't be so picky, right??

One day, my kids will read this blog, they will know that their mum likes white gold very much hehheeee....
