Three anniversaries...

In honor of our 3rd anniversary, I thought I'd post some pictures from the past few years....

Here we are at a party in Raleigh NC (Andy Hayworth's) in 2007
We were dating

You may not believe it from our clothes, but this is January, 2008 ...
in Florida...right after Jason asked my dad if he could marry me

Huntersville, NC - May 17th, 2008 - Wedding!

Year one of marriage, living in Lewisburg WV and loving life!

Year two...still living in Lewisburg but visiting New Mexico for Christmas
(January 2010)

I may in fact be pregnant in this photo...we just didn't know it yet. 

Year three - still in Lewisburg, but getting ready to head out
...and our family has grown!

It's been a crazy 4 years...We started dating (for the second time)...

 got engaged 2 months later, and got married 4 months after that....

Moved to West Virginia and started careers in Theatre...

Bought a house...

Had a baby ...

and three anniversaries...

We'll see what the next 4 years bring. They will start with:

Selling (or renting out) our house

Joining the Air Force...

Surviving Basic Training....

Starting new careers as a UAV sensor operator and a mom...

moving a few times...

Who knows what else? 

I'm sure it will be a great adventure though!

Mommy's and Daddy's

There are lots of differences between how mommy's and daddy's interact with their children...

For example, Da likes to do things that make Mom nervous 

(and Lucy suspicious)

(There is a picture of Bob doing this same thing with Jason's older brother 30 years ago)

Mom prefers to make Lucy laugh by tickling her, kissing her neck and pretending to eat her fingers or ears.

Da prefers to be a bit more daring.

Sometimes I have to remind myself that he loves Lucy just as much as I do 

and would take great damage to himself before letting something happen to her. 

Lucy really enjoys being tossed in the air...although she usually keeps an eye on me when Da is doing something crazy. If I look happy (aka: not worried) then she laughs and enjoys herself. If she can't see me or I look really concerned, she tends to get upset. 

Afterwards she always gives me this big smile that says 

"Mom, did you SEE me??? Did you see what I DID???"
