9th Anniversary

On Wednesday, July 13th, Justin and I celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary. Remember when we looked like this?


What's happened in the last nine years? Well, a few things.

  • Moved twice
  • Discussed where we wanted to live for about a million hours
  • Sold one house and bought two houses together
  • Adopted one of the greatest cats ever (Beacon) and then said a painful, early goodbye
  • Adopted the neediest cat ever (Syd) and a friend for him (Mel)
  • Started six new jobs
  • Bought one car
  • Lived overseas
  • Earned and then (fortunately) lost platinum status with Delta
  • Received one MBA
  • Drank countless bottles of wine
  • Introduced the sport of chair surfing (ask Matt and Dan for details)
  • Made many, many great friends
  • Said goodbye to several loved ones and friends
  • Most importantly, had two wonderful little boys
What will the next nine years present? Who knows, but it will definitely be interesting!!
