A dream realized.


Here we are ten years ago in our engagement picture.
 We didn't touch on purpose. 
 We wanted to prove something.
I don't know what. 


Tomorrow we will be married ten years.  I feel very good about the couple we have become and the family we are building.

 We will spend the day in a forest of redwood trees and then meandering through San Francisco.  We will do what we love doing the most which is being together and talking about how things work. Just being together really.

 There is noone elses company I enjoy more. We finally relax when we are together. We will exchange our anniversary letters too, which I love. We will also be spending the night in a nice hotel with a real bed in the room.  I don't even think you can request an air mattress at this hotel. It is THAT nice.  So I am going to have to make do with an actual mattress. And, I'm afraid, I am going to have to sleep in for as long as I want to. And then I will wake up leisurely to this two centimeters from my face.

Pretty dreamy.

*Golden Kisses to Jenn and Tyrah for making the dream come true*
