Cinco de us!

This past weekend was Ash & I's 5th wedding anniversary. I have to say we celebrated with a bang...a little too many martinis, wine, sushi, and banana and nutella crepes. Yes, our celebrations are usually centered around gluttony. At one point I may have been too drunk to really be in public. But it was awesome. I feel like this past year has been the best year for us so far, despite all of the stress of moving, starting new jobs, and adding Helena to the mix. I think having a kid has only made us closer. Definitely the best decision we ever made.

I can't believe it's been almost eight years since we started dating. Eight years since we went to Java Break in Lawrence for our first coffee date and talked for over 3 hours. Eight years since we watched our first movie together while my roommates embarrassed me in front of Ash like they were my little sisters. Eight years since Ash met my parents with rainbow colored hair. Wow, how time flies.

Sweetie, thanks for making every day interesting and for always making me laugh - and for a million other things I'll keep between us. I love you!
