i love you day

11.1.09

He still loves me.

12 years ago on November 1st, Mark and I met at a McDonalds in Breezewood, PA and he told me loved me for the first time. He said he knew then we would get married–only 2 months after we had met. Every year since, we celebrate “I love you” day with a trip to McDonalds—it’s pretty much our only trip to McDonalds all year long.


Yup, we really ate there.


Our 3 bundles of love celebrating “I love you” day with us.

clearly enjoying it

    What a fun thing to have as a family tradition, and it will mean even more to the kids as they get older. Congratulations on your “I love you” day.

    Oh my GOODNESS!! That HAS to be the MOST romantic thing EVER!

    I second what Petrie said…meaning even more to the kids as they get older. What a way to celebrate your marriage.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
