  • Four years and counting . . .

    so a lot has happened in these four years of matrimony
    here's a random list as i ponder this anniversary
    1. since 6 months into it, despite about 1500 matchbooks we could easily reference,
    we cannot remember the date, is it the 14th or 15th? (hence we have celebration plans for tomorrow night . . .)
    2. might be obnoxious but we love reminiscing about our awesome wedding each year, it was just so much fun, maybe that's why some people with lots of money get married over and over again,
    3. can't believe it's only been 4 years, seems much longer, prob cause we fast tracked it with the kids,
    4. so we both like to read alot, and we both like to read outloud, but we cannot stand listening to each other read outloud, hence the idea i had once that we could read a book together has never happened, i think this is funny for some reason
    5. josh hates paul simon and u2, and i hate counting crows but we both love mos def and billy holiday (this is in the vain of my zia and zio who had grateful dead vs. bobby brown and landed on lyle lovitt as a compromise)
    6. just this week i realised that marriage is about cleaning my hair out of the shower, just because i know he hates it, and some how this feels like a really hard thing for me to do
    7. i now can watch the phillies and follow what is happening and know the player's names
    8. he said he has learned to really enjoy and appreciate good food because of me ( i love that)
    9. he's a great dad
    10. for mother's day, after watching the kids alll day saturday so i could work on my illustration job (okay i love saying that) he made awesome food and packed an awesome picnic, makes him an awesome little husband, but also sets the bar a ltitle high for father's day . . .

    No Way!  It has NOT already been 4 years!  It was a beautiful beautiful wedding and you two complement each other in all the right ways.  Feliz Aniversario!

    Easily my new favorite top ten list.  EASILY!  I love that you can't remember the date...  all that time and money and hopes poured into one day (we all do it) and it comes down to just a few years later and you're all, "huh, what was the date again?"  It just really goes to show you how FULL your life has been since... and how life just isn't plain and clear.  Like Jacob, actually.  Of course, you like to say your illustration job, I like to say that i have a friend who is an illustrator!!!  For my kid's future Bible, no less!!!!  Anyways, one of my vivid memories of your wedding (maybe because I have it on video) is of your Aunt D. running and waving her arms across the street as we walked from the wedding to the reception... and she was all trying to stall you guys whilst the uncle was prepping some celebrative fire works.  It was just too funny.  We should watch that video again.  Except I'd have to find it first, which I'm sure I could do.  Lastly, we love you guys.  And Happy Anniversary!
