Fifteen Years Ago

This month Dave and I will celebrate fifteen years of marriage.  Let's take a look back in only fifteen pictures.  Trust me, it was difficult to choose. 

Yes, I look like a baby, and at 18 I was.  All dressed up for Halloween 1992. 

Dave has yet to put on his costume ... he was a woman. 

Dave clothed in his Marine Corps uniform, 1992.

All I know is we are in Crystal City, VA, 1993 and I'm wearing a pink sweater tucked inside navy blue corduroy stretchy pants.  Remember it was 1993.

Wedding Day at Emmanuel Baptist in Manassas, VA.  November 8, 1997.

 

This picture makes everyone laugh.  Clearly, I'm already barking orders at Dave.  He's such a lucky guy.

Obviously, we didn't waste anytime procreating, so life quickly begins as a parent.  Here Rachel is barely 24 hours old, December 1998.  For the first four months of her life Dave called her "the Kid".  I finally looked at him one day and said, "Her name is Rachel."

Dinner at Marco Polo for Bob and Margaret's 50th Wedding Anniversary in 1999.

 

Christmas 1999.

Dave was best man at his best friend George's wedding in 2001.

Little did I know, Joseph would look like this for the first three months of his life.  December 2001. And yes I had two babies in December. 

Our niece, Susan's wedding in 2003.

 Another Christmas card opportunity. I can't get over the white tights I'm wearing.  What was I thinking?  Sheer?  Nude?  Anything is better than white tights.

A night out at Logan's Roadhouse with my brother Mike and his family in 2002.  The painted woman in the background always makes me laugh.

Frisco, NC 2012

 

Our silly family picture we always take the last night of our vacation, 2012.  Of course Dave has to totally freak me out with his Tom Petty look. 

 

Happy Anniversary,  I love you!
