Twelve Years and Counting....

Mikey and I celebrated our 12th anniversary on April 8th. Wow! In some ways it feels like yesterday and then when I think about how much has happened it seems a lot longer. It's funny, I always say we have been many married twelve years, but together seventeen (can't lose out on the five years that we dated). That's a lot of years to just discount. Mikey and I went out to dinner just the two of us and got to have some great conversation. We talked about life together, J & J and what's next for us. I love this man more than anything. My world would crumble without him. He has been my rock for so long and never gets tired of it.

I'm looking forward to many, many more years as your wife. I LOVE  you baby!

Passover 2012

 I never thought the Jewish holidays would mean so much to me as they do now that I have J & J. Jayden really wanted to have a friend over for Seder, so we invited Briar and then Jordy needed a friend so we invited Brinkley. I set the dining room table for everyone and told the little ones that they had to sit with us while we ate dinner. They did pretty well since finding the Matzo was the reward after dinner. We did a "very abbreviated" Seder but I think the kids got the point. The traditions, the family recipes and all of us being together is what matters most to me.

Here are some pictures from the night. Passover also fell on Shabbat so Jordy lit the candles with Nana.
