Two Whole Years

It's true. Jon and I still "believe in a thing called love" (our song) two years later. "That's like a whole mission without trading companions once!" Labor Day was our anniversary. I didn't even realize it at the time but we totally picked the perfect weekend to be married. I've declared Labor Day to be my anniversary (regardless of whether or not it lands on the 3rd) every year. I love when Jon doesn't have to work on weekdays and that way every year we get an extra day of weekend time. We had such a great time. I almost feel like I shouldn't share it though because it might sound really boring to anyone else. Oh well, it's my blog.

Scarlet let us sleep in until 9:30 that morning. That was the greatest. What better gift can your 6 month old give you? We spent a little time organizing the apartment and put Scarlet down for a nap that turned out to be 3 hours long. That NEVER happens. We got to just be the two of us all afternoon, which mostly involved chatting about life and lazying around the apartment. When she woke up we drove out to the Red Rock Loop. It is so goregous! Jon and I had both not been there so we really enjoyed playing tourist in our own city.

Her smile in this picture cracks me up!

Then we had a great Thai meal at a new restaurant we hadn't tried before and Scarlet was a doll through the whole thing. The only potentially moment ruining thing there was this nutty couple that came in. The lady was seriously off her rocker. She kept talking to the people who worked there really loud and slow, saying things like, "You are in my country, you should speak my language." and "I was a vodka martini, you know what a martini is right?" Their english was fine by the way. She also insisted they have a male waiter because women are always slow and they just don't understand her. When she first walked in the door, she came right up to me and asked me how old Scarlet was. Then she says, "make her stay that age forever because when they are sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen... (she counted slowly all the way to 25) they are TERRIBLE!" she shouts at me. Quite the adventure.

But overall great anniversary. I've got a good little family.
