Firsties
by Scott Hardie on March 16, 2015

It's been one year today since Kelly and I got married, but that feels strange to say, since it's been nineteen years today since our first date back in high school. I don't mind that it took us so long to get to this "first" anniversary; I'm just glad that we got here at last. We spent the day out feeding flamingos at a local animal sanctuary and eating at some favorite restaurants before I go back on diet tomorrow. The last step left is to share the pieces of wedding cake that have been frozen in our freezer for the last twelve months. Here's appreciating the first of many anniversaries, and the woman who makes my life complete. I can't imagine spending my life with anyone else.

Unexpected Easter
This has been an unusual few days. Kelly's father had a stroke on Thursday, so we left town suddenly to see him, ultimately choosing to drive since we can't afford plane tickets on no notice. He's going to be fine; his vision was affected at first but he seems recovered now, pending another examination. Go »

Intruder Alert
At 5:30am I was awakened by the doorbell and the sound of someone fumbling with my door. Through the peephole, I watched a young man desperately trying to pick the deadbolt. After a couple of minutes, he gave up and stumbled off towards the other apartments. Go »

Look into the sweetest eyes in the world and tell her, "I love you".
Hold the most loving hands in the world and tell her, "I'll always take care of you."
When you say, "I love you," always mean forever. Happy Anniversary.
