Hair Today Gone Tomorrow. 2 Years & Counting.

What an exciting day today! Matt had his Friday off so we celebrated in style. Since our blog is all about bragging about how much cool stuff we do, let's just jump right in! Let me warn you first though, this entry is going to have an enormous amount of pictures. If that offends you then you might just want to skip it because I am not kidding. As Lindy would say, A hundreds of pictures.

Buzz Cut:

The first adventure today was cutting Hank's hair. It was a difficult decision as I did love his baby locks, but I think he needed it.

Isn't he cute? I think his long hair was charming and baby darling. But it was getting a little out of hand...so we did what needed to be done.

Here we go. At first I was crying and changing my mind, but it was too late. On the other hand, he didn't mind it at all, he didn't make one peep. He was as good as gold.

In fact, I think he got a little bored with the whole thing.
The end product was well worth it though.


I think he likes it. He kept patting his head...and apparently drooling all over himself.

Happy Anniversary:

It is our anniversary today. Don't go get your calendars...it isn't our wedding anniversary. Today is the day we got engaged. So we have now been engaged for 2 years and married for almost 8. I know, the math is confusing. It's leap day. We got engaged on leap day. Funny, right? It's a little known fact about us. This year we decided that to celebrate our 2nd engagement anniversary, we were going to get some professional pictures done. We just don't commemorate our love in pictures often enough. So we had a photo shoot and it turned out very well. It ended up that our portraits told the story of our lives together beautifully. It meant so much to us that we really wanted to share our history with all five of you. It is going to be a wonderful, special journey. These artistic gems are just 2 cute 2 be 4 gotten because we are going 2 be 2 gether 4 ever! Enjoy.

Just like our first picture, our romance began with innocence and giddiness. We were just so happy, so in love. Oblivious to anything else in the world. Flirting and having fun was all that mattered. I think that is masterfully captured in this esquisite photo.

The honeymoon phase. When love is confident and strong. Everything about him delighted me and I him. We laughed at our challenges. We smirked at trials. This was life, this was love, and we were in it to win it, baby.


Oh how I long for those honeymoon days to return. All to quickly reality set in. Matt (bless his heart) has gas. There is no easy way to say it. He smells. Often. I know he can't help it, but it is still just such a let down. I love him though. Dadgummit, I love him.


And there you have it. 2 years engaged and 8 married. Where has the time gone.?! Mostly now Matt just looks tough and I look annoyed. But we make it work and you know what? I wouldn't trade one minute of it. Not one single smelly minute.
