Day 153

Happy 5^th Monthiversary! Cannot believe that 5 month’s have flown by. I’ve been going through our wedding pictures every week and keep finding some great shots from our ‘first look’. This is one of my favorites that captured the moment of seeing Chris for the very first time. His smile is the most genuine smile I’ve ever seen.

Over the past 5 months we have been really focusing on getting back to normal, because as you all know, the wedding process sure makes you kooky! Both of us are looking forward to the holidays and seeing some family members that we haven’t seen in a few years (or at all, that’s me!). We’re beginning (yes, I said beginning) to re-organize all the wedding stuff and keepsakes from our day. We watched our wedding video last week for the very first time and loved every second of it. The footage is exactly how I remembered it. We’re so in love. We cannot wait to carry on the tradition of watching it on our yearly anniversary!

Well the next few months are jammed packed and so excited to keep everyone in the loop!

Day 144

Some of you may know that Chris and I are big hockey fans (Chris played roller his entire life and a bit of ice in his 'older' years). We both had a common love for the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim as they were the main team featured in one of our favorite movies. After we met, we became real Anaheim Ducks fans (although we still call them our Mighty Ducks) and started going to the games on a regular basis. We have a countdown for the season opener and ALWAYS go to Fan Appreciation Night (no, we haven't won a single thing at any of these games after all these years and yes we are bitter about it). We follow the players on a day to day basis and have to say the highlight of the season is watching The Element as Tim "mie" Marchant interviews our favorite players. A couple years back, I quacked like a duck and won tickets and a zamboni ride during intermission (I didn't want to ride the zamboni, so Chris took my place). I have to say, I do make a great duck! We love it when Parros cuts his hair for Locks of Love but still keeps that gnarly stache or when he scores his first goal of the season because really, he's just our fighter in the group.

Chris and I have had so many great nights watching the game from our own ice box at home and even more at the actual venue. We get into the game so much that at times Chris looks over at me and is like 'is that my wife?' I do love me some fights! We have some veteran players that we became huge fans of and some rookie players we are excited to see grow into their positions. This season is going to be great and are so excited to go to our first game this season for Chris' birthday. So here's to the DUCKS season, may it be filled with many W's (that's wins in hockey talk) and some bonus hockey (that's overtime in hockey talk)!

Day 142

Over the past few weeks, Chris and I have been experimenting on some new dinner options. Every week I create a 'menu' for us to help grocery shop and keep that ever popping question under wraps "What's for dinner tonight?", but this time was different. Instead of making the 'menu' for a week, I wrote it up for a month. Let me tell you that was quite a task. So figuring out a month's worth of different dinner options I phrased the question "Chris, what do you want for dinner?" He responded with one of the most surprising answers I had heard in a long time. He said SUSHI! So I placed it on the menu with a big smiley face. That day was Saturday. Chris went to the market to grab the necessites after reading the "how to" book on Sushi. Yes, we have that book and it was a gift from Xmas '09 {thanks Mom and Dad}. He prepped his station and went to work. I was quite surprised with his sushi making skills, he didn't leave anything out! I have to say, it was one of the best sushi rolls I've had in a long time! So thank you Itamae Christopher, you make the best sushi!

So what's for dinner tonight you ask? Cajun salmon with black beans and rice! Delish, I know!
