Wow. I can’t believe it. It has been 5 years since our wedding day. Crazy. Here are some photos of us a week ago Monday enjoying a spontaneous beach lounging trip. Complete with wine and pop chips–yum!

We’ve had some doozy years–like the year after your ankle healed from the break, then the tire shredded while I was following you and my mom in the moving truck because we were moving to a new state for grad school, and you got leukemia, and it took me 2 months to find a job, and our kitty died even though you were pumping her little chest, and a relative committed suicide, and your grandpa passed, and the nasty car wreck, and you were in the hospital for my birthday two years in a row. Yeah, that was fun, wasn’t it? Somehow we’ve managed to make it through and laugh about it–sometimes soon, and sometimes WAY after the fact.

So when I woke up and flossed my teeth this morning–like I only do the few weeks before a dentist appointment (everyone has a vice, no?), and I managed to pop the bridge out of my mouth, and then I talked with a bit of lisffff. And you made fun of some word I said silly like hafffff instead of half because I had a hole the size of California in my mouth–and we could laugh about it. That was fun, and something I could share with few other people in this world.

    Congrats on 5 years you guys! Y’all are an amazing couple, and we are really inspired by how you have taken various events in your life in stride. It is the most wonderful thing to have a spouse that you can laugh with about the mundane and the life-altering (like say, cancer, or unplanned babies :) ) here’s to more fantastic years for both of us! Looking forward to seeing you in October!
