Two Years

smooch

Today is my two year anniversary of being married to Dave. We still like each other. Being married to Dave is pretty awesome. But here’s the nutty thing: For each of our anniversaries, we could have never guessed at what the coming year would hold for us. Last year, we were jobless loafers taking a creative sabbatical [...]

Little Peanuts, Their Names and WTF Moments

Holy crap, babies are awesome. So is my husband. Dave has taken such good care of us all. I had a few days of being pretty helpless, and Dave did everything for me.

Over the weekend in Portland, Dave and I visited one of the restaurants we used to frequent for breakfast. We don’t like to wait at restaurants. Or rather, I’m ambivalent. But Dave super hates waiting in line for pretty much anything. The ferocity of his dislike balances out my ambivalence. So I can just say [...]

A year ago today, we doubled our dork power and got married. I like to think our benevolent unicorn ancestors looked upon us and smiled. A year already! Holy crap, I love this man.
