Melissa and I were able to celebrate our third anniversary today! The day started off with her picking up an additional 2.5 hour shift at work, which is always a fun way to celebrate. Afterwards though, we went to Emagine Theater to enjoy Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2, which was very enjoyable. Afterwards we took a trip down to Dundee to partake in a wine tasting and customer appreciation event at St. Julian’s, and to pick up our quarterly wine shipment. The event was a lot of fun, there was music and food provided by EJ’s Gourmet Street Cuisine. We had never had food from EJ’s before, but I can’t recommend them highly enough now! Their kielbasa and mac and cheese are hands down the best I’ve had, we may have to track them down in Ann Arbor to have it again! Once we finished at St. Julian’s we then went to Bed Bath and Beyond to get new dishes and a few other things; then we went home and relaxed with some television. While we didn’t do anything glamorous, we did enjoy having a day to spend together. I look forward to many more days with you Melissa. Happy Anniversary, I love you.

Happy third anniversary to my beautiful wife! Unfortunately we both worked over 12 hours today and didn’t get to celebrate, or even see each other much, it was still a good day with the time we did have. I am very grateful to have you in my life! This past year had it’s ups and downs, but we have come through stronger and we will continue to grow together for many more years to come. Thank you for all you do, for helping me to be a better person, and for loving me through it all. Here’s to many more years my love!

One year ago today something amazing happened. A very beautiful, caring, and loving woman chose to spend the rest of her life with me as my wife. Surrounded by a very small group of our closest family, Melissa and I were married. It’s hard to believe that a year has gone by already, but considering how busy we have been with becoming first time home owners it’s easy to see where the time went. If the fast pace of this past year is an indication to how quickly the years are going to go and the adventure that we are in for, than I cannot wait to see what the years together will bring. We have many things to work on, together, but that is the key. We will continue to work on them, together; to aid, support, and love one another, and through our combined efforts I know we will continue to be happy and capable of handling whatever comes our way. Happy first anniversary to my beautiful wife Melissa, thank you for loving me and allowing me to love you in return. I look forward to what the next years of our lives will bring us.
