2 years

For our two year anniversary, which was back in November, Logan and I celebrated it a little early. We spent the night in Atlanta at the Westin and had dinner there and then went for a horse carriage ride around downtown. We had the most HILARIOUS driver. It was so much fun, even though I did have a little freak out that I was possibly going to stop breathing. It ended up being ok thought, thank goodness.

Well, the point of this blog was this: I have this super awesome sister-in-law named Jessie, who is pro at updating her blog weekly and never leaving me wonder what those cute little nieces and nephew of mine are up to. And secretly, I wish I was more like her and more like super woman, like her. :) Every anniversary her and her husband do their favorite memories of the past however long they have been married, and I decided I had to steal her idea because 1. it is the cutest thing in the world and 2. I was extremely curious as to what Logan would say. So here it is! 2 years so 2 memories!

Logan said:
Honeymoon- and first anniversary we spent in Las Vegas. At the end of our stay I usually have $30-$40 worth of poker chips that seem to be a wast of time to cash in so I always ask you what color to put all out money on the roulette table,  red or black? Each year you nailed it doubling our money. Your my lucky charm.

Mystery pills-  as I lay sick one morning on my death bed with what was sure to be the worlds worst cold you give me two "cold&flu" pills before you drove off to school. Come to realize the reason I was so sleepy all day fighting to stay awake was due to the fact you have given me Tylenol pm knowingly or unknowingly. You thought it was hilarious 

(Just so everyone knows- I gave him the Tylenol PM on purpose. He had not slept all night and was still awake, and I knew he needed to get some sleep. I thought he would fall asleep and stay asleep til I got home, however, he fought being tired and then I just felt bad, kinda.)

I say: 
One night we had decided we were going to go check for calves for his grandpa in the middle of the night at about 3. Instead of going to bed, we decided to stay up until then. At the time Logan was working long hours during the day (5 am-5 pm) then going to school (6 pm-10 pm), so staying up late was not what he would want to do. Luckily this was a weekend night so it was possible. We stayed up and played video games and sang with a karaoke game for hours. It was so much fun to just be able to spend time together. Especially since it felt like he was never home and I felt so lucky that he wanted to stay up and spend that valuable sleeping time with me.

One night when I was pregnant I was in a lot of pain and did not feel well at all. All I wanted was a hot bath but I have this horrible fear of taking a bath in a bath tub where people have been showering, so Logan stopped everything he was doing, went and washed the bath tub, and made me a hot bath with bubbles, a candle, a big glass of ice water, and two Dove dark chocolates. It was so comforting to know that he was there to help make me feel better.

And because I had a hard time only doing two I had to do one more:

Another pregnant moment, however this one was more of an emotional ache pregnant moment rather than a physical ache one. For our first anniversary we went to Vegas. I was 20 weeks pregnant and in the stage where I didn't exactly feel like I looked pregnant, more like I just looked fat. My pants had stopped buttoning and my shirts all felt like they looked too tight. Well, we went shopping. (Pretty Vegas girls + shopping = bad environment for a pregnant girl) I had a meltdown. Right. In. The. Middle. Of. The. Mall. Logan said ok let's find the pregnancy stores and I tried things on but nothing made me feel better. I said all I wanted was some comfy cute sweats. We headed straight to the stores with just that and Logan picked out multiple cute sweat outfits (I was no longer in the mood to pick them myself). It made me feel a million times better about my huge fatso self. (And yes this memory is so still close to my heart that I am in tears just remembering it).


These are all memories I hope I never forget, and I am so excited to make more memories that will be just as close to my heart.

P.S. Thank you Jessie for letting me steal your idea so I can have these memories in writing.
