Love, Marriage & a Baby Carriage

This spring, Joe and I celebrated our ninth wedding anniversary. We had a pretty fantastic date night and ended the evening by doing a photo session with my friend Rachel. She heard it was our anniversary and said we should probably celebrate with some photos. Her work is STUNNING with a gorgeous story telling style…

The Marvelous Month of May

“May, more than any other month of the year, wants us to feel most alive.” -Fennel Hudson Well, hi again! I’m on a blogging roll this week and today I might (just might) finally get one of my monthly happenings blog posts complete in a timely manner. So! May! How great was that? It’s been…

Married for 8 Years!

  As of today, Joe and I have been married for eight years! I had planned on posting a few of our wedding photos in honor of our anniversary. But then I got to looking at them and nearly posted 500. It was such a good day and a fun celebration! (And I happen to…

Seven Years!

“And if this world runs out of lovers, we’ll still have each other.” We got married seven years ago today! Somehow, it seems like just yesterday and also forever ago at the same time. I’m still in love with our wedding photos. We were such babies (without any babies of our own yet!). In honor…

Five Years!

  Over the weekend, we celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary!   I’ll just let you know that most days, we do not look this fancy or this dance-y.   Our life is full and messy with two kids, two dogs, all crammed in our little house. And no one gets much sleep, so we run on coffee…

Four Years!

    We FINALLY got around to going on a date to celebrate our anniversary! Life has felt a little hectic lately, but I suppose that is to be expected with a new-ish baby. For instance, just as we were about to leave for our date, Rosie basically exploded and I had baby poop all over my…

Three years… of being all up in each other’s business

“Unless it’s mad, passionate, extraordinary love, it’s a waste of your time. There are many mediocre things in life. Love shouldn’t be one of them.” In other words, happy third anniversary to us! I don’t pretend to know what it will take to make it to a successful five, ten, or fifty years of marriage. However,…

“Anniversary Week”

Instead of doing a bunch of romantic and meaningful things all in one day, some of that anniversary niceness got spread out over the week. (Flowers and Chipotle on Tuesday, gifts exchanged on Wednesday, lasagna on Thursday, and cupcakes on Friday). The best gift was from Joe to me and it was our wedding album all put…

Happy 2nd Anniversary to US!

Joe and I have been married for two years today. Here are a few of my favorite moments together. 2005 The year I didn’t have a camera. And the year I really liked tanning beds. 2006 Joe takes me skiing for the first time to see if I’m sturdy enough to be wife material. When…
