5th Anniversary Celebrations

What do you do to celebrate your 5th marriage anniversary?  Go to a beer festival of course.  It only makes sense.  Well, maybe for us.

The second annual Houston Beer Fest went over much more smoothly than last year.  More entrances meant no lines to get in.  Longer hours meant less crowds at once.  It was still hot as Hades, but at least they had free water available.  I only wish the booths were manned by the brewers instead of just temp workers hired by the festival.  I think that's why we still like the Brewmasters International Beer Fest in Galveston better.  It's always neat to be able to learn about the different beers (what type of beer it is, how it was brewed, how long the brewery has been around, etc.)  You can't really get that when the booths aren't manned by the brewers. 

Dorks...


After the festival, we headed over to The Melting Pot with Sal and Nicole to enjoy some fondue.  None of us had been there before, and it was actually pretty good.  Plus, it was fun to cook your own food.

It was a four course meal - cheese appetizer with bread and veggies, salad, the main course (seen below), and chocolate with fruit and sweets.  Yum!




Pretty fun 5th anniversary celebrations, huh?  Up next on the blog, fun 5th anniversary presents...
