Three years!

CO and I have been married three years already (sometimes it seems like more!).

I love him so much and am thankful that he puts up with me!

He surprised me with chocolate and flowers this morning and has been so supportive through our pregnancy.

I'm very blessed!

Happy Anniversary!!

Two years ago, I married my love.





Happy anniversary babe! I love you more each day...

I Jump, You Jump, Jack

Seriously, great show, folks. Plus, I'm a fan of Logan. I know, I know, it's controversial. I just like him for Rory. Do you feel the same way?

We're heading out of town tomorrow for the wedding. I'm a blonde again and I have a cute dress. I've done all I can to arm myself.

We'll be in California. Unfortunately, we won't be heading to San Francisco :(. Last time we were there, I got my dh's version of a tour. No Lombard street. No Alcatraz. I got the surfer/Coastie's version. We saw all the key surf spots and the main Coast Guard stations there. Some of them were pretty cool, I do admit, and I even saw the Golden Gate bridge from one of the better surf spots before my attention was redirected to the incoming set.

Congrats to SL8R for winning Bells today/tomorrow. DH and I would have loved to be there, and we watched online. (We were there a few months ago though - and I'm guessing we'll visit again soon!)

Wedding presents??

So, the wedding is next weekend. And, being the semper paratus couple we are, we're thinking just now about the wedding present. What do we give them?

Option 1 - Money
Boring, impersonal, but incredibly helpful. The couple is planning to move cross-country this summer, and are saving up for that move.

Option 2 - Registry
It's there for a reason, folks. Course there's not much on there because they've each had their own houses for a while. Plus, who really needs an $80 pitcher?

Option 3 - Creative
I'd love to get them something from Etsy or take my own pictures and make a "LOVE" collage (really, just a picture of each letter in a different space in a multi-picture frame - ala this) or a collage with their new last name (assuming she'll take his). But this is kind of risky, and could be difficult to pull off in 5 days.

What would you give??? What was your favorite wedding present?

Wedding Dress?

What in the world should I do with my wedding dress? What did you do?

Options:
1. Keep it - Oh yes, every female dreams of giving their dress to their daughter - but being a military spouse who moves every 1-3 years... it doesn't seem practical.

2. Donate it - Let someone else get enjoyment from my beautiful dress.

3. Trash it - the pictures are so much fun! But do I really need more pictures of myself?? There's no way I'll be able to convince DH to climb back into his whites... But you really should check out some trash the dress pictures. See Amy's examples... but then again, I'd really have wanted to do it in Hawaii rather than where I am now.

4. Sell it - we definitely could use the money, but it seems so anti-climatic.

5. Let it sit at my parents' house for a few more years - the perfect solution for the indecisive me! They love me enough to keep it for me, right?? ;)
