Weird!

Mike and I met in a bookstore in 2000. This is, I think, our very first picture together, taken new years' eve at the church I was attending at the time:


Fast forward almost 9 years and here we are, married for 7 years today and with a little monkey!


Over the years we've traveled to the other side of the world


and hiked lots of mountains.


Seen the kitty cat grow from this


to this.


And the baby monkey grow from this


to this.


My family is a little smaller


and Mike's is a little bigger.


The world has changed a lot in the 9 years since we met and the 7 since we got married but this is still the same: it's always fun


and always interesting. :)


:) It's a good life. Thanks for being awesome, Mike!
