Happy Anniversary!

Today is my mom and dad's 38th Anniversary! Thanks to both of you for showing Kim and I what a great marriage should be like---I'm so thankful to have such wonderful parents! I've always loved telling people that my mom and dad lived across the street from each other growing up. What are the chances?! They started dating in high school and continued after. My dad went to UW and missed my mom so much they decided to get married on his Christmas break so she could go back to Seattle with him. Or at least that's my version of the story. :) 4 years later they had my sister and 7 years after that me! I know all relationships have their ups and downs but I can honestly say I only remember my mom being really, really, REALLY upset with my dad one time. It was when he surprised her with a new car for their anniversary. I think she was more in shock than mad, but she was still pretty pissed. Hahaha, other than that I never experienced any type of major argument or fight----in my eyes we all had the perfect family/life and I think that's exactly how it should be! ANYWAY, happy anniversary again....I love you!!

Today we're having a Christmas lunch at work and tonight we have Joe's company Christmas party at the Red Lion. Tomorrow we're going to do some shopping and on Sunday we will be celebrating Sophie's 1st Birthday! That will definitely be the highlight of the weekend. I can't wait to see her in all of her birthday glory. I can't believe she's been with us a year already on the 23rd. She's simply amazing. I love her more than I ever thought I could!

Happy Friday!
