Anniversary Honeymoon

Heather and I are headed to Galena, Illinois today for our one year anniversary. It's a few weeks after our actual anniversary, but it's the first time we've been able to get away. I keep saying it's our honeymoon, Heather keeps correcting me. It's pretty funny.

I wonder if I keep saying that because I'm not used to being married or because it still feels like we are in the honeymoon phase or because I'm, as my dad used to call me, a royal space cadet.

A royal space cadet. That's pretty much the best kind of space cadet. My wife is definitely a princess. I'm so thankful for her and her gracious heart. And her understanding. And her ability to listen. And her sharp wit. And I could go on.

The leaves are past their prime. It is colder much faster outside now. We are both working at an Oasis just outside of Belvidere, Illinois. After working for a few more hours, we will head onto Galena for a weekend of relaxation and celebration of our life together. My posts may be brief.

Happy Anniversary Honeymoon to us.
