Today's our second wedding anniversary, and it's time to once again take stock. If I were normal, I'd probably be doing this on the first of January, but I just don't find that time to be particularly conducive for reflection.
We celebrated the same way we did last year, very low key, with some wedding cake and a nice hot latte at Barefoot. We've been going back to Butterfly Cakes for mini one-tier versions of what we got from them for the wedding.
All in all, things have been very good for us in the past twelve months despite the general economic meltdown. In our second year of married bliss, we managed to:
- have lunch at the French Laundry
- visit Alaska!
- go scuba diving in North Sulawesi, Indonesia (me)
- finally finish our remodeling (yay!) and moved back in (double yay!)
- travel to London (me)
- travel to Barcelona and Madrid (Charity)
- travel through Central Europe: Prague, Budapest, Croatia, Brussels, Lausanne, and Geneva
- help Peter and Felicia purchase a house close to us
I wonder what this year will bring? It is highly unlikely (alas!) that we'll be doing much more traveling. We've only been back in the house for a few months, and we've been focusing on making it a home. The furniture buying spree that started in December has sort of tapered off and we're working on giving everything that "lived in" feel...
Some personal goals for the year ahead: I want to make some of our own furniture; I want to become a better photographer; and seriously now, I want to be a little less sedentary than I've been to date.
