2nd Anniversary!!!

Leah and I just celebrated our second anniversary! We had an awesome time downtown. We decided to go to this sweet looking tapas restaurant that we walked past one day and it was a awesome choice. The food was amazing. We shared four different tapas and then finished it off with some Spanish cake that was super delicious. Leah had some sangria and I had a Guinness and it was one of the best meals of our lives. We also sat outside on the sidewalk to eat and that was a lot of fun.



After dinner we walked down to Millennium Park where they were having a free concert. It was "Music without Borders" and there was an African band that was really fun. We sat on a blanket in the grass and listened to them for a while. Eventually we decided to move a little closer to see them better and we also were bless with watching a bunch of white people trying to dance to African music...hilarious. Our favorite was the skanky white girl with no rhythm dancing with the nerdy white guy in khakis with no rhythm. Pretty sweet. Finally we walked back to the train. Unfortunately the red line had some problems so we had to wait for a while and we also ran into a bunch of traffic because of the Cubs game but it was still a great night that we will remember for a long time.

These are the flowers that I got for Leah. They are gerbera daisies...which is what she had in here wedding bouquet.


We love each other a lot and have felt really blessed these past two years. We've had so much fun, in fact, that we have decided to stay married to each other. Cool.

*side note:

I just received my new bike today!!!! It's awesome. I love it. It is a Bianchi Via Nirone 7. It is super sleek and has some real Italian flair. And it is super fast. Fast is good.

Hi Sonny..(I won't call you Dotty, Leah Belle) ;)

It was nice to hear of your good time, and find it very exciting that you have decided to stay married. I was going to send you a gift, but I wasn't sure you were staying together, so that's why I didn't. ;)

Sorry I missed it. I'm a bit off my game. I have my fake smile. :) You know the one.

So you got your bike, you big brat. Did you sell that stuff on Craig's list? Did Leah kill you when you came home with those beautiful mahogany antique spindles? Did you get a bunch of money? You loaded? Okay.

Well, I miss you. I remember all the 4th of July parties we had when you were little and you swimming with all your cousins. I hope you have a nice 4th of July.

I love you guyses
Love Mom
