On Wednesday we celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary.
Actually, we didn't do any celebrating on Wednesday. Ben had a meeting at the Family History Center so we briefly saw each other and he did buy me roses, but that was it.
Instead. we went to The Melting Pot last night- much to Ben's chagrin. I really enjoy The Melting Pot, but Ben thinks it's way too expensive when we have to cook our own food.
Nonetheless, I am the one who made the reservations and so we went. And it was great- as always. Ben took me to The Melting Pot on the night he proposed, so it always brings back fun memories.
I think I see a smile on Ben's face:
This past year has been a tough one- not on our marriage, but because of outside forces. I've gotten to see Ben in a completely different light. It's been really nice to know that when I'm being loud and controversial and making lots of enemies, I can count on Ben. He's always there for me. I feel like this year we really became a "team." I know that sounds weird, but it's true. I know he's got my back, and hopefully he knows that I have his. And that means a lot. Actually, it means more than a lot- it means everything. We're lucky to have each other- the older I get, the more I realize that a happy marriage is tough to come by. And I'm so glad to have one!
Even if it means I don't get to go to The Melting Pot as often as I would like.

Jonni- I joined Weight Watchers. I really like it. Once I get to my goal weight I'll go into more details- I have pretty much turned into a Weight Watchers commercial because I like the diet plan so much!
Happy Anniversary! You two are a great team! And, I agree with everyone else Miss Skinny Minny! You look awesome! At least you can feel good about that even though your school district is going to pot.
I'm finally reading through blogs and just had to say what everyone else already has - you look great!!! Weight watchers does have a wonderful plan, but it is due to YOUR effort and diligence in following the plan that you look so fantastic. Great job!!
