Where Have I Been All My Life?!

So clearly my blogging skills have taken a back seat.... again!  I thought I was doing better at blogging more regularly, but not so.  It's funny, because I still read the blogs I follow regularly (like daily or more!), and I think to myself each time I'm looking at the dashboard "I should write something..... but I can't think of anything.  Eh, I'll do it later."  Yup.  Now is later!

So, today is my husband's and my five year wedding anniversary.  It seems like just yesterday that we got married.  Yet, when I think about our wedding -- our actual ceremony, the reception, the dance -- it seems like longer than that.  Not that I'm saying it's a bad thing.  It's just all that planning and waiting seems like a lifetime ago. 

I was thinking today about the anniversaries we've shared thus far...

The first year, we went back to the Wisconsin Dells to the same water park we had been to on our honeymoon.  SO FUN! 

The second year we went to Sioux Falls for shopping and eating. 

Our third anniversary was spent on a trip to Rapid City to go to a Taylor Swift concert (bless my husband's heart).  I'm not so sure Tyler was into TayTay (yep, that's what we call her at our house!), but when we got to Rapid and saw that our seats were FRONT ROW (!!!!!!), he seemed to have more fun.  Then when TayTay grabbed my hand (EEEEEEPPPPPPP!!!!!), I cried, and I think I realized he actually was having a fab time!  We had just gotten possession of our house (Tyler's grandpa's house that we bought), and had been painting, moving, painting, moving, painting, moving, moving, moving the week before we went.  This trip was a welcomed break!

Our fourth anniversary was spent just hanging out at our house.  Lydia was only about 2 1/2 months old, so it was easy to just hang out! 

Today we have again just been around the house.  It's been kind of nice to just hang.  We planned to go on a bike ride tonight, but as I type this and look out the window, I see that the sky is darn-near black, I'm hearing thunder, and I'm pretty sure it's raining/going to rain soon.  I'm not Lance Armstrong.  I don't love biking that much and I don't like the weather that much to ride IN IT! Haha!  I'm literally taking a rain check!

  2. By golly, Katie, it does! I really love this picture of us, but I hadn't even noticed her dress matching my blog. She's such a style-conscious dresser! Haha! Thank you for the wishes!
