It's hard to believe it has been a whole ten years since Dan & I got married. So much has changed yet I'm still utterly in love with this wonderful man. I was a nerd and made him a slide show with pictures of us in iPhoto set to Glee's "The Only Exception." I figured only a couple people would actually want to watch it on Facebook, so I didn't post it there, but Dan did this wonderful status update back on our anniversary (a couple weeks ago):
Ten years ago today I married the girl I met over cookies, too this day she still brings sweetness into my life. To celebrate I've created a top ten list of the reasons I love you Sarah Smith
10) One of the first things I noticed about you was your radiant smile. You developed a special smile reserved just for me. You've still got it and you have shared it with our children, I see it every day.
9) You have always been the easiest and most enjoyable person to talk to that I know.
We share similar dreams and goals for our future and both look forward to travel and visiting new places.
7) I'll say it a thousand times, you are beautiful.
6) You are an awesome Mom, and it shows in the children you are raising that are full of Joy, Love and Laughter (with the occasional spat along the way).
5) You always are sure to tell me that you love me and greet/say goodbye with a kiss.
4) You are very intelligent woman.
3) You are a woman that is willing to watch and enjoy SciFi, that is like a unicorn rare and precious.
2) Somehow you think it is still cute when I misspell a word here or there. I'm getting better. I'm amazed you put up with my letters for 18 months.
1) You see me for who I can become and are helping me to become a better man, husband, and father.
I love you, Happy 10th Anniversary.
Yeah, he has a tendency to do things well. (: Me? I can only say, I am doing exactly what brings me joy: being his wife and raising his children. There is nothing else I would rather be doing right now.
As far as celebration goes, we took the baby with us to eat at the new Smashburger & then had the H. family over to watch Despicable Me with us. Doesn't sound like a whole lot, but with moving and our wedding rings....
Perhaps you remember when I lost my wedding ring 2 years ago? I've been wearing my grandmother's engagement ring since then & since it is almost 70 years old, it was in such need of repair it wasn't cost effective to save it. The Shane Company was able to look up Dan's original purchase order from 10 years ago and still carry that wedding ring set. Long story short, I'm wearing the ring Dan picked out for me when we got engaged and have my grandmother's diamond in it. I couldn't be happier. Dan's ring got some tlc too. He needed it resized because he gains weight when I get pregnant. Amazing what a nice cleaning can do to something that has been worn for years!
We also want to fly to Boston in the fall for a weekend with just the baby & the two of us. Keep forgetting to buy airplane tickets, but we will any day now. Love you, Dan!
