9th Anniversary

By
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!!

The rides are categorized by height so it's easy to know what rides your kids can ride. Jack tried several rides: big trucks, bulldozers, leaping frogs, the monorail.
