Anniversary Post

July 26, 2008

I realized this morning that I didn’t do a very good anniversary post.  I couldn’t sleep last night due to my hip so I decided to blog myself to sleep instead.  I know, whine, whine, groan, groan.  Jason’s heard enough too. ;-)

It’s shocking to me that we’ve been married for 11 years.  Time sure flies when you’re having fun.

The best part about the last 11 years is that I have spent them with my best friend.  There is no one I’d rather spend my time with.  Last year when we spent almost 4 weeks together with only Tova as a distraction, I realized how much I had been missing my husband.  It was wonderful to wake up each morning knowing that we had a whole day to reconnect.   I realized how much I had been missing my husband & we made the most of our time together. All the stress we were under drew us closer together & I remembered why I depend so much on Jason.  As hard as it was for me to be without the boys, the time Jason & I had together was very precious to me.

Happy Anniversary to my best friend!  I love you!

Mine, not the kids.

On Wednesday I took the kids to the pool, slathered everyone, including me, with sunscreen.  Guess who got burned?  My back & shoulders are still sore.

On Thursday I slipped on a wet sidewalk & skinned my knee & banged up my hip.

It is so true, the older you are the harder you fall.

^*^*^*^*

We all went to VBS last night.  The boys were very excited about family night.  The kids sang their songs & then we all had cookies & the required red kool-aid.  Gavin can be shy but he jumped right up on stage with the other kids & was dancing away.  Ethan tends to do the “I’m embarrassed & will not dance” routine except tonight when he decided to ‘help’ Gavin do the actions.  I was afraid they were going to start wrestling up on the stage, but thankfully it never came to that.

^*^*^*^*^

Today is Jason & my 11th anniversary.  Jason will spend the day working, I’ll spend the day at the pool with the boys.  Later we’ll head out to supper & do a little shopping.  Tova’s coming along since she has a major aversion to baby-sitters at the moment.

And yes, I do remember how hot is was that day.
