Happy Anniversary

I can’t believe this woman that I went to high school with, hung out with in college, went to a movie with me once in a while after college, has been married to me for 12 years, given birth to two wonderful sons, and made me one of the happiest people on earth.

Martinah, I love you more!

Maymont Park

A few weeks ago, we took the boys to Maymont park to play with my new lens. Unfortunately it was drizzling and I didn’t want to risk taking out my camera so we used the point-n-click instead. Of course the sun came out when we were at the farthest point from the car.

Happy Anniversary!

For our anniversary this year, we decided to go out of town. Since I coach Billy’s soccer team, one night was all we could spare. After some searching, I ended up choosing a place called Smithfield Station. The place was beautiful. It’s a brand new facility with faux fireplaces in the rooms and balconies that overlook the Pagan river and the marina. We ate dinner out on the pier and I had the best omelette from the omelette bar which was part of the breakfast buffet. After breakfast, we walked around the shops downtown and had a nice chat with a woman who ran the Genuine Smithfield Ham Shoppe. The only problem we ran into was that the hood from my camera was knocked off and fell into the river and sunk out of sight for ever.

Happy Birthday Mart!

I’ve been really bad these last nine months about posting stuff (which I hope to remedy soon) but I wanted to take the opportunity to wish her Happy Birthday from me and the boys!!

Hangin’ Around

Today we had temperatures in the 70’s so we put Martin in his swing for the first time. p1060543.jpg p1060552.jpg p1060558.jpg p1060565.jpg p1060568.jpg p1060572.jpg p1060582.jpg p1060593.jpg

Happy 9th Anniversary to Us!

We have been married 9 years as of today. Wow!

“Our wedding was many years ago. The celebration continues to this day.” - Gene Perret

“Infatuation is when you think he’s as sexy as Robert Redford, as smart as Henry Kissinger, as noble as Ralph Nader, as funny as Woody Allen, and as athletic as Jimmy Conners. Love is when you realize that he’s as sexy as Woody Allen, as smart as Jimmy Connors, as funny as Ralph Nader, as athletic as Henry Kissinger and nothing like Robert Redford - but you’ll take him anyway.” - Judith Viorst, Redbook, 1975

“Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.” - Antoine de Saint-Exupery

“Without love, what are we worth? Eighty-nine cents! Eighty-nine cents worth of chemicals walking around lonely.” - M*A*S*H, Hawkeye
