Ten Years Ago

I was in Sarasota working in my last clinical rotation in midwife school
And I met this Swede....
Who would sometimes wear purple pants...

While walking on Siesta beach looking at stars. A retired school teacher had set up a telescope in the parking lot and showed us the rings of Saturn and the moons of Jupiter. The Swede claims I was glowing, so he asked me "So, what do you do when not looking at stars? " I answered as we walked to his car. He ended up giving me a ride in his red convertable to my yoga class. He joined me, where it was then announced that 'Today we are doing something different, this will be a partners yoga class...." And so I found myself in some interesting positions with a man I picked up on the beach just an hour or two before..... and thus starts the story that takes too long to tell just now, that is the beginning of the even longer story of our life together.

Three Years later, we married on the anniversary of the Day we met.

With the love and support of our great families and friends

And we had the honey-iest of moons in Tahiti




Happy Ten Years!
Happy Seven Years of Marriage!
Happy 120 Months!
Happy 3650 Days!
So much love.
To many more adventures and even honey-ier moons and a SwedeLife.

Happy Anniversary! My grandmother used to live in Sarasota and once owned a candy store on Siesta Key. I spent a lot of time there about ten years ago so maybe saw the two of you on the beach together ...

You two have a great story.
