Since I was young, I have always known this: Life damages us, every one. We can't escape that damage.
But now, I am also leaning this: We can be mended. We mend each other.

Washington D.C.

The weekend of the 4th of July we decided to make a trip into D.C. to go to the zoo. In hindsight probably not the best idea to go into the nation's capitol during the fourth. We did not enjoy the city and have no immediate plans to return. The purpose of the trip was to see the National Zoo. I will admit that the zoo was nice. Although driving through D.C. makes me more nervous than the zoo was worth. But we did have a nice time seeing the animals.



The elusive anteater.





Snapping turtle.












These guys were too fast for the camera, but they were one of my favorite things to see.




Finally a close up of the camera shy anteater.

May 25, 2013

I forgot to write anything in May about our anniversary, how neglectful of me. May 25 was our 3 year wedding anniversary. I still can't believe I am married or better yet that I am lucky enough to be married to Tim. I promise I won't get all mushy. I could not have chosen a better person to spend eternity with. For our anniversary we went to a Japanese Hibachi Grill. Our together gift was a new bed. Tim got a book about Einstein. We had a really good day. No pictures. I just wanted to post that I love being married. :) Some interesting thoughts:
-Tim does not really like desert (I really haven't met very many people like this).
-Sometimes going to bed mad is fine (seriously sleep is the great mediator).
-If a boy refuses to play with your hair, don't marry him (Lucky for me Tim never tires of this task).
-Together we have lived in 3 states, 6 houses and had 5 wards (we are part gypsy I think).
-There is nobody that I would rather be with than Tim (Chauncey and Dwight are also included in that statement).
