TWO


Family photo January 2010. This is us, just the two of us. Married for 7 1/2 years and always planning something new. Most couples by now would have a baby, a dog, a mortgage, and 2 car loans. We are happy to report we have none of the above. Although a new car would be nice, it's just a want (until the nugget dies forever and then we get a new/old car!!)

Things we enjoy as a married couple:
-Coffee. Being able to enjoy a cup or two in the morning before the day begins is just so relaxing.
- Taking walks on the beach. Todd hates the sand but he does love being with me, so we go to the beach.
- Road trips. We love nothing more than driving a few hours to explore a new city. A stop at the local mall is always on the to do list.
- Acting like we are kids again. This is usually done with our friends, as we loving just being complete fools and laughing till our stomach hurts.
- Sitting in the same room or at the dinner table with nothing to say because being together is enough.
- Shopping. We can walk around the mall and not buy anything and have a good time.
- Cooking together. Creating meals complex or simple makes the dinner more enjoyable. Todd takes all the credit on teaching me how to cook. I would have to say that Mom and Grandma taught me a lot of the basics, but Todd did encourage me to try new foods. Thank you! Green food is good too!
- Sleeping in. Nothing is more relaxing or more sincere than cuddling in each others arms in the morning.
- Laughing together. We do this often since, well, face it, we are funny people. Stinkin hilarious!
- Being comfortable in our own skin. We don't have to put on a happy face if we are sad. We don't have to watch what we say. We just have to be our own self around each other. No secrets. No insecurities. Simple understandings. Just Love.
