when dates are too good to be true.

i don't know how i did it, but i am so lucky i convinced john to marry me.  he took me out on a hot date for our anniversary last weekend, and i found myself feeling so relaxed and happy, and laughing the entire evening.  he is my favorite human.  

we saw finding neverland on broadway and all-around did the tourist-y things.  it was the best!  we grabbed a lamb gyros on the way to the theater and were in heaven.  john coined the phrase, "greek taco bell" and i think that sums it up pretty nicely.

the show was absolutely stunning.  we both loved it and have been singing the songs ever since!

john harman, i love you so much.

a special thank you to r+j, for watching our girls and making such a fun night possible for us!  

5 years ago today.  i think i'll keep him.

a little date to celebrate.

monday was our two year anniversary.  {oh gosh can you believe it?! two years!}  and we decided to celebrate with hibachi, since i've been craving it for some time....

it was delicious.  my only regret is that i couldn't eat some of john's "green dragon" sushi roll.  {no raw fish for me!}  john was really nice about it and considered forgoing the sushi to avoid making me jealous.  he's a pretty swell guy....

to all the star-wars loving, guitar playing, pizza eating, babymaking, devilishly-handsome redheads i've married:

you are really super awesome.

our anniversary weekend.

 we started our park city weekend with some onion-sausage-pepperoni pizza deliciousness at an off-beat restaurant on main street.  the walls were lined with vintage beer and soda cans.  so cool.

  

we then walked main street with our ice cream cones.  because you know, that's just how we roll.

the morning of our anniversary, john made me a delicious breakfast.  we cuddled on the couch and watch lds general conference together.  after conference, we went shopping at the outlets and i got totally spoiled.

then we had ruth's chris for dinner....

on sunday we drove through the canyon and enjoyed the {gorgeous} changing leaves, watched conference at the cabin, and enjoyed a stew dinner with family.  

my favorite talk from conference was specifically about fathers.  i thought about john and how great a father he will be to our children someday.  i am loving where we are right now, but i am excited for that time in our lives, when it comes.  i love him with all my heart.   

i sort of like you a lot, john harman.

john harman, you have changed my life.  each day, i fall more in love with your genuine smile and your reassuring arms.  you make... studying fun, star-wars sound cool, cloudy days seem bright, argyle handsome, dark alleys feel safe, and everything meaningful.  you are absolutely, positively the best thing that has ever happened to me.  this past year has been the happiest of my life - and i love you.  

happy anniversary #1, with eternity to go.
