Our Anniversary

Yesterday was our anniversary.  Dave and I have been together now for 6 years.  It only seems like yesterday that he almost broke my finger during a super competitive game of air hockey...on our first date.


This photo is actually how we figured out when our anniversary was.  A few months into dating, we realized that neither of us knew when our first date was.  This picture was taken the day after our first date and it was taken on June 24th, 2008.

We've had a ton of good times...

We had only been dating a month when a bunch of us went out for my 23rd birthday.

We've had some hard times, mainly Dave's health.


He's had 5 surgeries, many chemo treatments, and countless hospital visits in the past 2 1/2 years.


We've managed to have good times through the bad.  Dave proposed while in the hospital last November.


Next year, we get to say "I Do!"  Here's to many more years!

A Few Weekends

The past few weekends have been awesome.  We've managed to relax and have a lot of fun.  Dave has been feeling pretty good, which tends to set the mood.

Three weekends ago we went to a baseball game to see the Pittsburgh Pirates with my parents.  We went into PNC Park early and ate dinner at Rivertown Brewing.


The day was beautiful.  I loved just looking at my city while we ate.



The sky is so blue it looks like I photoshopped it!  I promise I have no clue how to do that anyway.  I loved it.  It did get a little hot sitting in the sun while eating, but I didn't think it was that bad.

The restaurant is on the side of the ball park.  Here was our view into the park.



Dave got pretty warm sitting with the sun at his back.



Our seats for the game were amazing!  It hits me everytime I'm at PNC Park, that it just has the best view.







My mom and I took a selfie!



The game was a lot of fun and ended with a win!



The next day, Dave and I went to the casino to watch the Belmont horse races.  The random horses we picked didn't win, but we had a really good time.  While we were there, our puppies got their hair cut....FINALLY!

They were so tired when they finally got home.



It took me a while, but I got a good picture of them together, looking at the camera.  It is in my bathroom, but beggars can't be choosers.



Even one day after getting his hair cut, Jimmy (on the right with red collar), manages to fluff up his beard so that it gets in his eyes.  I don't know what to do with him!

I think my pups are so cute.  I can't help taking and sharing pictures of them!


They snuggle!





Jimmy didn't want to get out of bed!



Dave and I were getting ready for work and as I was leaving the bedroom to grab something, this is what I saw...


They are just too cute!

This weekend I went out to lunch with my Grandma Betty, Dave, Missy, and Owen!



I think this was his first time in a high chair at a restaurant.  All the other times he was in the car seat sling thingy.

He was so excited when he saw my sister opening his food.



He took a nap after lunch.



I was watching him a bit at my house while Missy took a nap.  He's doing this army crawl type thing so I got all the pillows from the couches and made a circle.  He didn't mind too much.


The dogs would hop in and out checking him out.




Toby was even watching Owen for a bit.



The puppies started to play with each other outside of the circle and Owen wanted to know what was going on.  He was like a litte meerkat.







The pups said, "What did we do?"


Toby played with Owen.





Overall my weekends were pretty good lately and I thought I'd share my pictures with you!

Picture heavy post, but that's how I like it.

I have a small update for Wednesday.

Sam :-)

Edited to add:  I forgot to show you that Owen came to my and Missy's soccer game yesterday!



I don't think he was impressed...
