Dia de los Muertos


Today is the Day of the Dead. A Mexican holiday which celebrates the lives of friends and family who are no longer with us. I know it sounds kind of morbid, but it's really not. It's a celebration of life... a time to reflect on how important it is to make the most of the time we have, as well as remember the people who made us who we are.

It is also my wife and I's anniversary.

We plan to celebrate our lives together by getting a hotel room in Dallas and spending the day exploring the city we live right outside of, but don't really know all that well. I've also planned a fancy dinner at a fancy restaurant with fancy waiters and other fancy stuff. I even had to make a reservation (I feel so grown up)!

When I think about how high the odds were of the two of us actually meeting each other on this vastly huge planet, it simply blows my mind.

But we did, and I can't imagine spending the rest of my life with anyone else.

I love my wife. I love my life.

What more is there?


Comments:
I love you too. I think the fact that I was born in Vegas and grew up there and STILL got here to meet you is even more mind boggling...

If there was anything that would make be believe in fate and destiny, meeting you would be number one with a bullet.

Love you!
 
Happy Anniversary Y'all!
 
That's Sweet... Even that whole "Bullet, Thing"... Happy Anniversary. to the both of You...
