We have been married one year and one day as I (Orin) write this... Seems like not that long, honestly, which I guess is better than it feeling more like 10 years!
We celebrated with a night at the Renaissance Grand downtown and dinner where we had our reception a year ago. ANd presents and stuff. Flowers, cards, etc.
I'm not sure anyone truly appreciates the marriage vocation going into it - I'm not sure if I had any pre-coceived notions, but if I did, I'm sure they weren't what the last year actually was.
Here's to going forward on the journey together, both looking forward at what we can't exactly see!

Don't you mean 155 years young?
ReplyDeleteMaybe. I'll probably be really tired, though.

"Maybe. I'll probably be really tired, though"
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess you could be 155 years tired.... or 20 years young and 135 years tired...the possibilities are endless really.
P.S. At first I was like "4 comments, wow! Shannon and Orin finally got someone to read there blog!" Then it turned out to be just you two talkin... O well, even if I am the only one who reads this blog besides you, at least I'm cool!
Just so you know, it's not your reading of the blog that makes you cool.
