Good Times

Labor Day Weekend was terrific, also our anniversary
Two Holidays In One
Marcy and I celebrated our First Anniversary on Labor Day. Last year the wedding was on the Saturday before which made it to where I could stay another day in El Paso before going back to work in Austin. We still have our honeymoon to do. Now that I think about it, getting married on or around Labor Day may have been a great idea because we have long weekends. This particular Labor Day was spent as a pun, being that we did a lot of work around the house. We did get some great fun in also with my mom, dad, and aunt over to eat steaks on Sunday. We went to a festival as well, allowing us to enjoy some good food, music, and people watching.
When the time came for Marcy and I to present anniversary gifts the decision was made for her to open her card first. Just as she was taking hers, the one I gave her out of the envelope, I could see a look of surprise on her face. I immediately figured it out that each of us had chosen the exact same card. That seemed to make the occasion even more special. Either El Paso has a shortage of anniversary cards, or that is a great card. Anyway, we had a lot of fun with that.
