My fifth wedding anniversary is coming up soon! Man, where does the time go? We’ve almost known each other for nine whole years. Amazing.

I knew pretty early on that he was the kind of guy, or rather THE guy, I’d marry if I let myself. Our first New Years Eve, after we’d only been together for a month and a half or so, Jon’s friend asked me if I thought I’d marry him. I’m sure I turned bright red, but I managed to say something un-scary like “I dunno” rather than “Yeah, probably!” I mean, you can’t tell a guy after just a month and a half that you’d probably marry them, right? *smirk*

The photo is from our trip to Wisconsin Dells in 2003. Weren’t we cute back then? Awww…

If I don’t have to work on our anniversary, we’re thinking about going to Kozy’s for lunch. Our brother-in-law is a chef there and if he’s working I think I’ll just have him suggest a menu item for me. How fun is that, right? Get the chef to personally recommend something? Love it. *grin*
