Happy Anniversary to us!

ON February 10, 2006, Greg and I married. Best decision I've ever made. I think I love him even more now. Funny how love can grow. So that is 4 years of marriage, and I think it suits us well. We both are on the same page in life, we both want the same things, we both love each other, and we both enjoy each others company. I mean, could you live in a studio with your spouse? It works out pretty well for us. At least, for now. :)

To celebrate our anniversary, we spoiled ourselves this past weekend with a romantic couple's retreat at the most beautiful spa I have ever been in. We both got a one hour massage, snacks, a robe and slippers, and they blocked off the mens locker room for couples only. We got to steam together (oh, and the steam room had the coolest wall of tile that lit up like stars), and shower together (TMI?), and the shower was amazing because it is a rainfall shower. If you don't know what that is, look it up, because it is amazing! Anyway, we were completely relaxed and pampered.

Tonight, if the rain stops...haha...we are gonna go on a picnic. But, we might have to resort to plan B. Don't know what plan B is, but I know it entails us being together and eating some food. Greg is leaving for Arizona tomorrow and will be there for a week. He said he is still my Valentine though.

Anyway, below are two pictures I scanned in from our honeymoon. We went and stayed in a cabin in Sedona, AZ. I don't think those cabins exist anymore, but ours was super cute and cozy.


Greg: I love you with all my heart. You keep me sane. You light up my life. I look forward to each new day with you. Thanks for being my everything! Happy Anniversary babe!

Snapshot

Greetings to 2010. I can't believe its been so long since I have done a post. The new year has started out quite well I think. Not much new to report on. We've made some changes in our lives, such as eating better and we have a new zest and vigor for life. I guess that is something to report on. Maybe I'll post about some of that stuff this year. I never know what to write about, so feel free to leave me ideas.

Today was a beautiful Sunday. Greg and I went out for a drive. We took our cat, Dora. She loves car rides. It is kind of hilarious! She loves to sit on top of my head rest and just lay her body over it so she can look out the side windows. And after she is bored of looking around and exploring the car, she gets really lovey and lays in our laps and purrs. It's pretty ado
rable. I have a few snapshots from today to share. And I wanted to share a quote about snapshots from Ansel Adams. I read it today in a book about film photography that I got for Christmas when I was in high school.

"The snapshot is not as simple a statement as some may believe. It represents something each of us has seen - more as human beings than as photographers- and wants to keep as a memento, a special thing encountered....The more we look, the more we see, and the more we see, the more we respond. Wen we begin visualizing our responses to the world in terms of images, we become photographers in the most rewarding sense of the term."
-Ansel Adams

So, without further ado, here are our snapshots of the day:
