Today's our anniversary. Stephan's grandparent's were also married on August 14, except in 1947. Here we are with them in 2004 at Christmastime in their house in San Diego. They both died this last year.
I was looking through our photo libraries trying to find some pictures of us from the last five years. In the first two years of our marriage, we have tons of pictures of me and Stephan doing lots of fun things and we both look good and alert and happy. Then after Penny was born, all the pictures are of Penny with one of us, or just her. And, I swear, I look better in all the pre-children pictures than post children. Childbearing has done something to my photo-taking abilities or maybe just to my skin and hair.
Here we are, five years later and a happy little family. (We have river-walking booties on, in case you were curious. And, the pants around Stephan's neck were wrapped around Ginger to protect her from the swarms of attacking mosquitoes.)
Here we are walking off into our happy future.

Cute post! And happy anniversary. I love that wedding picture you posted. Congrats! :-)
Too bad those flowers are in front of your face in that wedding picture, I wanted to see how good you guys looked pre-children.
Happy Anniversary!!!!
I think it's the sleep deprivation that make all mothers look not as good post children. But I think you both look great.
Love the boots.
P.S. This is Rachel, NOT David
You know what I love best about that last picture? You're both wearing flip-flops. That is SO the two of you! Happy anniversary.
