Seven Years...

Seven years ago today, I married my soulmate - yes, she reads my blog. ;-) We've gone through a lot in 7 years: the kids, a couple of houses, a few jobs, ... But it has really been fun.

We started the day off a little bit on edge - the result of all the stress we're going through with the house, the move, the job, etc. That's OK. I am really busy at work and needed to get in early. At lunch, I looked around on the 'Net for a local florist. I found one a mile away so I called them up to see if they had fresh roses. It turns out that they just got some in that were still packed on ice. I raced over, picked up a nice bouquet of red roses and drove them back to the house (to tell the truth, with all that's going on, we both knew the anniverary was coming up but didn't realize it was coming upon us so quickly). Although she expected flowers, she was still surprised.

I got home at 5:15. Lisa was feeding the kids. AJ, Vanessa, and Matias were already there (AJ and Vanessa were babysitting - Matias was walking around the house). When the kids finished, Lisa went upstairs, got dressed, and we ran out of the house. We headed over to the Rio City Cafe for a nice dinner and a complementary bottle of champagne.

All-in-all, it was a very nice anniversary.
