We did IT, again!

This year is our 10 year wedding anniversary and because of where we are in our life together and what we've gone through and simply the fact that we made it last for ten years, we decided to recommit to each other by way of a vow renewal. It was awesome! The day was chilly and breezy. The spot where we did the ceremony is next to a water feature and in the shade. I was freezing my butt off refusing to wear my jacket during the ceremony :) However, it was worth it. Many thanks to our friend Pastor Leo Martinez for preparing and performing a perfect ceremony (just what we wanted and needed). Thank you Dad (Hirsch) for taking a few pics for us. And thank you to family and friends who witnessed the vow renewal and joined in to celebrate at lunch!

Through the years...

In recognition of our 10th Anniversary, I thought it would be fun to put together a visual evolution of John and I. This project ended up to be more than I expected, in a great way! I love you, John.

John and I are commemorating our 10th wedding anniversary this year with a vow renewal in November and more recently this great photo session. Thank you to my friend Carrie of Carrie Terrones Photography.

Where are the pics?

While the last month has been busy, I have not taken many pictures. The only thing I've got are portions of John's day surgery for his shoulder. The best one is the incriminating picture of him putting on stockings. I am going to keep this one around for a while...could come in handy quite often.



The surgery went well and he is now about one month post surgery and diving into physical therapy. We are hoping he will return to work in the next month.

Tahlor celebrated her sixth birthday just before Christmas. She was blessed to receive some great toys and clothes from family and friends. Right now we are working on a loose tooth. Hopefully a blog post topic to follow shortly.

Christmas was wonderful except for the fact that Tahlor missed the last two days of school due to a cold and then of course it was spread around the family. Because they are young, the girls ended up with ear infections as well. We were all sick or getting over the cold by the time Christmas morning came...even then we had a good time. Grandmas and Grandpas came over for dinner in the afternoon and of course, that meant the joy of opening more gifts. Thank you everyone!

Overall 2010 was a good year. Our family is looking forward to a fantastic 2011. Happy New Year to you and yours!
