Bruce and I celebrated our 8 year anniversary today, meaning we are just a few months shy of ten years together. Shocking, I know, particularly for those who made my acquaintance any time between 1994 and 1999. (To you, I say: Did I date you, then do the "Fadeaway?" I sincerely apologize. Did I date you and treat you bad hoping YOU would do the "Fadeaway?" To you also, I sincerely apologize. Did I remain committed to you, mystifying family and friends as to why I was with someone who treated me bad/was a loser/both? I sincerely apologize to MYSELF.) Back on the topic- I used to wonder how people could spend decades and decades together, but the last one has gone by in a blink.
Year One: Getting to know each other, and partying like crazy at the house on Palisade.
Year Two: Honeymooning in Yosemite.
Year Three: Havasupai
Year Four: Kate joins us. Rusty leaves us- RIP good boy.
Year Five: We immediately ditch her and go to St. Maarten.(Just kidding- we waited 9 months.)
Year Six: The Grover Boyz Cabin.
Year Seven: Bruce and Kate bond as I spend the bulk of the year in a vomiting/Zofran main-lining/taco eating haze.
But it all was worth it when Kiki joined us in: Year Eight.
Year Nine: Mockery of others who enter into marital vows begins.
Year 10 and beyond: ????But I can't wait to find out...because the Bruce has been a raging husband.
xoxo and Happy Anniversary.

Congrats!
I am so happy that you finally found someone who fits you perfectly. You are such a special woman and Bruce is so lucky he snatched you up and held on tight.
What a cute couple who don't seem to age!
Love the photo journey. I'll have to agree that the last ten years have rushed by. Seems like I've known you forever at the same time though. Happy belated anniversary!
(Also of note: your hair grows outrageously fast.)
What an awesome post. Bruce is a lucky guy, and you are a lucky gal. Everybody wins! Love you guys!
Loved seeing you all "through the years"!
Congrats to you both! I wish I had been around to see years one through ten, but heck with it, here's to the next ten, I can at least be with you through your blog.
Does Bruce still own that hat from year 1? I swear I have seen it before . . . ;) Happy Anniversary!
Uncle Larry and I will be celebrating our 37th anniversary next April..And you are definitely right about the pains and frustrations, but the key is to hang in there because beyond the hard times, we receive many blessings. It's all in how you decide to live. 1/2 c full or a 1/2 c empty. For me, its a full cup! I love you Becca. Auntie R
