8 is great... with Nate



It's hard to BeLiEvE it's been 8 Years! yes.. that picture IS moments after Nate proposed. We were dorky enough to re-enact the event for the self-timer on the camera....

Pardon my traversal down MEMORY LANE...

June 15, 2000:
After 6 years of dating and an 11-month engagement, we finally made it! Highlights of the day... a long time to quietly contemplate alone in the celestial room before the ceremony, a quick run to Crown Burger after pictures, a funny mix-up with Nate and Fast Eddie Edwards, and a luxurious night at Wolfcrest...
June 15, 2001:
An awesome night in the World Trade Marriott, NYC... right before the fated September 11. Great Italian dinner, lovin' the view-- a step up and a subway ride down from our Morningside Heights apartment...

June 15, 2002:
Livin' large in the Davidson's sprawling 23rd floor Upper West Side apartment. We couldn't NOT spend our anniversary in that place.. overlooking the Hudson, throwing chocolate chips off the balcony, dreaming about our little babe in the belly, and playing lots and lots and lots of Settlers...
June 15, 2003
Back to Wolfcrest! Thanks to mom, our first night without Grant, although he occupied a great deal of our conversations...

June 15, 2004
A visit to San Fran, John and Ang, and a long walk on the wharf...

June 15, 2005
Me uncomfortable and hugely pregnant, we dined elegantly on Cafe Rio one week before Jack's birth...

June 15, 2006
Two weeks into residency. A night in Philly, Nate lookin' hot in a tux as we celebrated at the Union League for a dinner honoring the outgoing chiefs...

June 15, 2007
Our first anniversary apart... me in Utah, Nate slaving away at work, of course. A lovely Park City getaway was partaken of a week early, thankfully...

And, here we are! This year is Father's Day... and we celebrate as a family, honoring the World's BEST Dad. Here's to 8 great years as your wife, babe! Thanks for every, single day!~

Happy Anniversay! Look how cute & young you both look! I laughed so hard when I read that you guys took that picture! What a great idea! :)
You guys are such a great couple! We better get a HUGE 10th right.... we will almost be done with residency by then!! Cayden asked if we would take him to lego land to celebrate Nate being done!!

Jenny-what a cute post. I feel a little sheepish that I don't remember all the things we have done on our anniversary...way to remember! You and your family are so great. I love to keep up. I always think about us both having 2 boys and how much fun they would have together playing.
