Eight years


Although we just got married last October, an anniversary that matters so much to me is today. Eight years ago on this date, Chris made his move (after I choreographed a series of maneuvers that made it clear that such a move would be well-received). Following a heated game of RISK and the consumption of some Dutch courage, the ambiguity of our previous courtship melted away. Today we're celebrating with some baseball, some wine, and a pizza. No frills necessary. My mom took this photo of us on the beach in Delaware last week.

Awww, happy anniversary! I bet it feels like just yesterday! Wedding anniversaries are special, but nothng can compare to the anniversary of your relationship's start. You two are adorable!

Gorgeous Sunset on the Beach in your Amhara Skirt. Sounds to me like you both made the Right Move. I just know you will have many more years.

I think low key loving evenings are the best way to celebrate the beautiful awkwardness of those first moments together.   And evening beaches are pretty much the epitome of romantic...

Okay, I have to ask... are you from Delaware, or just visiting the beaches? Because I'm from Wilmington ;)
