Today, we are celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary!!! I am very happy. It's kinda been like...i dunno, a drop in the bucket because we've got that eternal perspective. We look forward to being together forever. So the way I feel right now is that 10 years is something I look back on & say, "look at all we've accomplished & all that's happened!" Rather than, "whew, we've made it this far -50 more years to go" or whatever. (Yes, we believe there is a way to be married not just till death-do-you-part, but into the next life too. Wanna learn more about that? go to "mormon.org" or ask me/or your nearest Mormon friend!)
Anyway, after we had been married about a month, I told him, "Wow! You are my best roommate ever!!!" (Sorry past roommates, I loved ya, but not this much!;).) I was absolutely in bliss those first few months. I had an adoring husband, helpmate, & confidant...and we didn't have to say goodbye to each other anymore! (Well, not at night anyway, just when he went off to work). But I knew he was mine & I was his & our commitment was so deep, the feeling was indescribable joy!

Today, we celebrated by me surprising him for lunch. I got his co-workers in on it (Thanks Chan, Tieva & Nathan!) We went to "Hot Wok" a new Asian food restaurant. I had Pad Thai & he had Kung Pao Chicken. It was really delish! Once when I picked up my glass of water, my husband pointed out that the water ring left behind was in a smiley face!!! I felt like that was a sign. We took a pic & just in time too because right afterward, the waitress came back, filled my cup & set it back down in almost the same spot, so it ruined it.
For dinner, we had grilled filet minon & baked potatoes. Very juicy & tender. Again, I'm not a fan of red meat, but it was something to drool over!
P.S. On Saturday we completed the anniversary by attending the Houston Temple. We left feeling such a wonderful peaceful feeling & so refreshed!
