Four Years of Wedded Bliss

Yesterday the old ball and chain and I celebrated four years of marriage. I can honestly say there is no one else in the world I would choose to have spent these last four years with. He is my number one guy, my best friend and I still have the hots for that gorgeous face.

Our first picture together - October 2000

At this risk of this getting too cheesy - that's definitely not us - that is all I have to say.

It's Been A Long Time, Baby

10/11/2000 is a very special day for me...every October 11th, I think about the day (12 years ago this year) that I started dating the most important man in my life (I mean, he did give me our gorgeous little baby boy).

12 years ago I started dating my best friend.

March 20, 2011 - those two (I mean, six) little lines were the best thing I've ever seen!

 

11 months ago I gave birth to our baby boy.

To date, the best day of my life - November 13, 2011

I am a very lucky girl knowing that Nick chose me....

Three Amazing Years

On August 1, the hubby and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary (yes, this post is almost a month over late). I cannot believe it's already been three years, but yet it also feels like we've been together a lifetime...Well, we basically have... at least since October 11, 2000, the day we started dating. I absolutely love this man and couldn't imagine spending my life with anyone else.

I have to say that we aren't great with planning in advance a celebration around our anniversary (is that the woman's job? Fail.). For the most part, we've just tried to spend some time together when our anniversary comes around, however, that wasn't the case this year. I was actually in Vegas for work and flying back that night AND to top it off both the hubby and I were sick. What a terrible way to celebrate THREE years together.

So, what are we going to do to celebrate you may ask? We are going to try and find some time in the near future to get an overnight sitter for little man, get a hotel room, plan dinner and drinks and just spending some time together. And I can't wait. It's been too long since we've went out on a date...just the two of us...and I used to love our date nights.

Now the question is: what do I get him that falls under the 3rd anniversary material: leather? I can think of some things, but they aren't appropriate for this blog. :)

Some pics of one of my most favorite days ever...three years ago.

Loved Bethany Lutheran Church and my cathedral veil 

First kiss as husband & wife!

Little Ace came right up, plopped down on the steps
& enjoyed his sucker - lots of laughs over this little guy

We did it!
