With this ring, I thee wed.

Today’s Photohunt Theme is “Hands”

Photograph by Joan Williams, at our wedding. It is in my collection.

Today we have been married for five years.
I kind of like him.

He loves me for everything I am, and all the things I am not. He accepts me even though I show him my faults.

I am able to be at my very most “relaxed me,” in his presence.

One in the company of the other can do the most stupid things that come to mind. The other not only does not mind, but most of the time thinks it’s pretty hilarious.

And he rubs my feet. Keeper.

Awww, congratulations on 5 years

and…
I kind of like him.
When I spoke these EXACT words, my closest friends knew I would eventually marry the guy who ended up being my husband.

Wonderful wedding shot and great fun pic. Yours is one of the bondings that will probably last a life time.

Congrats on the 5 years — I hope you will join R and me by getting to celebrate your 31st and beyond.

Yay! Happy five-year anniversary! I feel the same way about my guy, Joe…right down to the foot rubs.

AND, as of yesterday, he’s not my boyfriend anymore…

He’s my fiance! Woohoo! (Did you want to tell the news of engagement to EVERYONE you meet, stranger or not, too? Gah…I’m probably going to make an ass of myself every day for the next four months. And then it’ll get WORSE after the wedding, cuz I’ll be all like, walking up to random people in Starbucks and going, “Oh, isn’t it a great day? I HAD SEX with my HUSBAND last night!”)

Teehee. Happy day!

We’ve been together for almost ten years and I think he’s rubbed my feet once. I think I may need to trade up.
