Running a little behind with this post...but Russ and I celebrated our 6th year of Marriage earlier this month. crazy how time flies. Engagement, Wedding, Babies and more Babies, moves, jobs, animals, cars, trips, hikes... I'm not quite sure how much more we could have fit in. When I started thinking about the significance of 6 years, I thought about when we first started dated. I realized that we had begun our courtship in 2003. 10 whole years we've been together. Instantly that number took over. A decade long of togetherness. Pretty impressive. We had met at a friend in common's place during a party. I had left stating to my friend, "if that guy asks, give him my phone number". The details are a bit fuzzy as to who asked who first after I had left for either my number or his number. Either way, Russ left with my number. AND he called. I was on East Campus and I had come out of my class and there was a voicemail. Lo and behold a deep, charming voice saying, "Hey I just got back from overseas and we should hangout." A. His voice was great, B. He had just been overseas and so had I. Hawt. C. I was ready to have a date, it had been awhile.
And who would have thunk 10 years later, we are a family of 4-about to be 5, living in the Mountains and ever so happy. Russ is for sure my rock and I tried hard to think what I could get him for our anniversary. We have/had a lot of expenses coming up so I thought I'd make him something. Focusing on 10, 10 years of us...I made this frame with a picture from each year. What I learned...
1. We don't take enough us pictures nowadays. There is always a kid in them, which is cool. That's our family, but we are also a couple and I want to not forget that.
2. We seriously keep getting more good looking. LOL. Self-absorbed, maybe. But Russ is really good looking:) And considering all this lack of sleep the last few years, I'm still doing pretty darn good:)
3. I love us.
Happy 10+6 Russell!
Meg
