Centennial Anniversary


Numbers count in this family! I am married to a Math guy. Not knowing how it got started, we keep track each month of how long we have been married. Today we Celebrate our 100 month anniversary. They have been great months and I look forward to 100 more (eight years and four months to go). Thanks Matt! We had Mariah take this picture of us because, of course, we have almost none of the two of us together.
To celebrate we made strawberry jam! Yummy!

Happy 100th! That's a fun tradition. We don't have any fun traditions in our family, what losers we are!

I think you should come up with 100 reason why you love each other.

Just kidding.

Matt - thanks for figuring that out! Since JP and I have the same anniversary as you two, we can celebrate too!

Note that at 16 years and 8 months you will celebrate your 200 month anniversary, and at precisely 25 years will be your 300 month annniversary. Additionally, if you figure 30 days per month, we have enjoyed roughly 3000 dinners together. Which you wives will recognize as likely around 3000 dinners prepared. Phew! That's a lot, no wonder you are sometimes tired. Husbands may recognize that as 9000 meals paid for, assuming you are bringing home the bacon. Phew! No wonder I am poor, if I could just cut back on the number of meals we eat by say 33 percent, I could probably have saved enough to take a two week vacation in Hawaii. So who wants to skip every 3rd meal for the next 100 months?

Thanks for your thoughts. I'm all over cooking less meals. Why don't we skip two meals a day and go to Hawaii sooner. I will also lose any extra weight and look fabulous for the trip.
