Today Andy and I are celebrating our seventh wedding anniversary. June 30, 2001 was a very hot wonderful day!
Our anniversary has made me a little nostalgic, so I thought I would share some pictures of us through the years.
This is us the night we got engaged, my 21st birthday. (That is also my first legal alcoholic drink, a long island iced tea. I don’t mess around!)
This is our official engagement picture.
However, since we got married before the popularization of digital photography, I have no pictures that I can post of our wedding day! But we really did get married, I swear.
And then, a few years later, we became three.
Our first family road trip to Busch Stadium (although she had already been to a Reds game by this point… this little girl visited four different major league stadiums – and at least a dozen games -in her first three years of life!)
Our first Christmas as a family.

And then we became four. Except you wouldn’t know it, because nary a picture exists of all four of us. So you’ll have to take my word for it that I still exist.
On each of our anniversaries, I think back to our first one. At work that day, I mentioned that it was our first anniversary and a co-worker said to me “Do you still like him?” I replied affirmatively, and she said “Well, you’re doing better than I was.” OK so you had to be there, but it was funny. Anyway, seven years later, I still like him. So much so that we’re I have consented to spend our anniversary evening at a Rush concert. That is love, people.
Happy annivesary, baby. I look forward to many, many more.
Congrats! I wish ya lots of luv and blessings on the many more you celebrate together!

Happy Aniv. Good looking family! It’s nice to hear these kind of “success” sories in our whacked out society!
Happy Anniversary. Those are all beautiful pictures. I so relate to you as I still really “like” my husband too. To genuinely be friends with each other really helps a marriage last a long time.
