4 Years Anniversary!

One week ago, 17th of June was our 4 years Wedding Anniversary!
My husband is a bit indifference to anniversary or birthday, but I found and red so many posts that western husbands brought bunch of flowers or presents etc... back home for their wives on their anniversary or birthday!

So I told him about how western husbands are thoughtful, as it was my secret intention, lol

 

But on that day, he came back empty-handed against my expectation (lol), actually he didn't come back on that day, he got home after midnight again on that night...
I was quite disappointed, as I was thinking to cerebrate our anniversary together this year, actually we have never had been together on our wedding anniversary somehow yet...

I had been preparing two tickets of Jazz concert, as our anniversary present for him, though...
But last Saturday, when we went to department store, I found stunning figurine!
"Sea Maiden" by NAO, I fell in love with it when I first met!
So I asked him, and so he presented me as a belated anniversary present!!

Here is the photo... Her beauty takes your breath away, don't you think?
I LOVE IT! and am smiling at her since then!

The Jazz concert will be held on this coming Saturday, it's by MJO (Manhattan Jazz Orchestra)!
I'm so excited and very looking forward to going there with him!

Happy Anniversary! And don't let us fool you...Western Husbands for the most part aren't that thoughtful...because we western wives remind them A LOT!!! LOL!

A lovely ornament and I bet the jazz will be great!

Happy Anniversary Yuko! I think the Sea Maiden is breathtaking!

Enjoy your jazz concert. That is a very thoughtful gift from you.

The NAO figurine is beautiful - I'm a huge fan of Lladro (they make NAO) myself; the mermaid is lovely, and it's nice that he acknowledged your anniversary this year!

Happy belated anniversary!

Yuko,
I can see why the Sea Maiden caught your eye, she really is special. I love her gentle face and thoughtful eyes, I think she is sitting dreaming of her Sea Prince :>)
Congratulations on your anniversary and many wishes for lots more very happy years. I hope you have a lovely time at the concert.
Love Angela

Happy Anniversary Yuko. I love your Sea Maiden - she is quite serene. My husband does not buy me flowers on our Wedding Anniversary but then he buys me flowers on a weekly basis! Enjoy the Jazz concert.

Hi Yuko~!

うーんっ、いろいろあったみたいで
遅れてしまったけど、↓の車に傷をつけられた件、大丈夫?
詳細がいまいち読み取れないけど、ゆうちゃんが眠れなかったくらいだから
きっとよっぽど腹立たしい一件だったのでは…

それにしても、ピンキープやピンクッション!
一番目と三番目は誰が作ったのか何となく分かります♪
二番目は、すっごい美しすぎる八角形ピンクッション!
素敵だね!!!

そうそう、遅れましたが結婚記念日おめでとう~☆
何とかジャズコンサートに行けることになったのかな?
それはそうと、ゆうちゃん、まだ4周年なのね^^
まだまだ古新婚さんって感じよね(笑)
いろいろありつつ仲良くやってるみたいでホッとしています~^^

この人魚さんすっごくかわいい!
運気が上がりそう!
ゆうちゃんのところに来ると、やっぱりステッチがしたくなるなぁ。

またそのうち始めよう~っと^^

Happy anniversary !

You know, all western husbands are not so romantic. I think that a lot of western wifes are "working hard" before the anniversary day, to help their husband to remember the date and not forget a prensent, lol !!!

Sally said...

Hi Yuko, happy belated Anniversary. Your Sea Maiden is beautiful. I also love Lladro. My Dad has a good collection of it. Your Sea Maiden has a beautiful face.
I agree with some of the other girls re western husbands forgetting anniversaries. Mine is one of them LOL. - Sandra.

Happy Anniversary Yuko :) Our anniversary was on the 14th .. great month to be married *smile*

I love your Sea Maiden .. she makes me smile too!

Carol said...

Happy Belated Anniversary Yuko. Your Sea Maiden is beautiful. I have a couple of Lladro pieces that I love.

I nearly always have to help my husband when it comes to anniversary presents. Most of the time I will let him know what I would like or I buy it myself and then show him what it was that he bought for me...lol!

Have a wonderful time with your dear husband at the Jazz concert. :o)

Nicki said...

Happy anniversay Yuko! My husband didn't get me anything this year either! Not even a card. So I went and bought myself a present and gave it to him to give to me :) Not all husbands are romantic - mine is terrible :)

Joy said...

Happy anniversary, Yuko. I love the litte mermaid. Have a lovely evening at the concert on Saturday!

Susimac said...

Happy Anniversary and I adore your beautiful Nao pice - as you know I love Nao/Lladro.
