Dec. 14, 2002: A winter wonderland wedding was planned. Ice candles were made, snow on the ground was anticipated and a cape to wear for the cold weather was rented. Reality: 60 degrees, the sun was shining that day and there was not an ounce of snow on the ground. It was still a beautiful day, the goal was accomplished and the night was danced away.
Fast forward 6 years:
Dec. 14, 2008: A dinner date is planned with baby sitter ready. The snow starts early in the day, the rain starts late afternoon and the temps slowly drop to somewhere around 5 degrees. Laundry, house cleaning and entertaining the children occur. The call to cancel the babysitter goes out, take out Chinese food is brought home. The 6th year anniversary is celebrated at home, with the snow and wind blowing outside, and cards are exchanged after the children are in bed. Happy Anniversary!

Hey Gang,
I remember that day and I remember seeing a patch of dirty snow under a shade tree. Ah, 60 degrees sounds like heaven compared to the bone chilling weather we are now experiencing.
Congrats on your 6 year anniversary!
I assume the chinese takeout was most excellent!
Keep warm,
Jeff
