anniversaries

As a way to connect my desire to blog and my photography business, I decided to separate out the personal side of things to a new blog! I have lots of ideas swirling in my head about future posts and am anxious to go on a journey with each and every one of you (my readers of course!).

Just a few weeks ago, Anthony and I made it to our 11th year dating anniversary. Holy Moly! That number is a bit surreal, not only because we’ve lasted over a decade without killing one another but it also makes me feel incredibly old! In April I turned 30. I am still a tad in denial about that number.

Side story: while setting up an account on healthcare.gov (which I had no problems navigating at 7:30 pm on a Saturday night – lame I know!!), they asked me my age in the following categories: under 30, 30-65, and above 65. WHAT 30 YEAR OLD WANTS TO BE GROUPED WITH 65 YEAR OLDS?!?!? End side story.

11 years together, 8 years as Mr. and Mrs., 3 different states we’ve called home, 3 bachelor’s degree (Anthony was an overachiever and double majored), 1 master’s degree, and 1 oh-so close PhD degree, a successful photography business, some heartbreak, lots and lots of traveling, a bit of growing up – man we’ve come a long way since October 2002!!

I would never have made it to 30 years on this earth without A by my side. This is one of oh-so-many posts to come dedicated to this man who asked me to marry him in 2004 and continues to say yes every single day.

XOXO,

Kim
