14 Years!

 Today is our anniversary.  We have been married for 14 years and have been friends for over 20! I love how happy we are in this picture.  I still feel that way today!  I know I may not always be the best at showing it, but I really do! This will be the first year we don't go out on a date for our anniversary.   We still have a fun evening planned though.  I have a zoom meeting for class (sounds romantic, right?) then homemade chicken curry , chocolate cake and ice cream.  And we will probably end it all with a movie or game night with the kids.  Sounds pretty perfect to me!

Jake is pretty special and I am so glad we ended up together!  He is a hard worker, a great dad, a perfect companion, talented, so smart, funny (even though sometimes I pretend he is not) and is easy on the eyes.  I am pretty lucky to have him around for forever!

This past week or so has been a lot of the same but it did have some fun moments for sure.   We enjoyed another hot dog cookout.  Fires in the backyard with the kids are always a treat.  We roller bladed down to my parents again and visited with them for a minute, social distancing of course.  My dad has been growing a beard and I had to make sure and document it.  I don't ever remember it being that long.  He usually kept pretty clean shaven growing up.

We have had a few family game nights.  Scategories, Apples to Apples and of course Rook.  That is one of their favorites.

The kids have been enjoying the weather.  I have been busy with homework, but have tried to get out here and there and squeeze out some housework in between.  Jake has been working a lot!  He tries to get in as much fun with us as he can when he gets home, but is sometimes pretty wiped out.  He is pretty great. We are enjoying our time together and look forward to planning a few more outdoor activities!
