3 years since "I do"

(a brief pause from our daily Japan reporting).....


I am going to confess a little secret here.



Every year on our wedding anniversary I take the time to drag out my old wedding dress from the back of the closet, put it on and take a picture.

It's a little pleasure of mine, first of all because I loved that dress and I find it sad that I only get to wear it once. And second because as long as I can still fit in it I am able to sleep at night.


Anyway, this year, our 3rd wedding anniversary being today.... for obvious reasons I performed the "putting on of The Dress" ritual at home before we left for Japan.




Pwheeeeeeeuuuuuu, still fits!





Here's to another year of happily married life!

Cute dress. I think I could fit into mine (if I had one) up until my firstborn.

Welcome back. I loved all the Japan pictures--especially the pink tractor!

Cancun Canuck: Well thank ya!(twice)!! =D

Mexico way: Now you got me blushin'.... no fair!

Misschris: I much debated over the whole wedding dress issue actually....I'm not much of a dress wearing kindda gal (I could live in my blue jeans 24/7 if they'd allow it at the office) I finally decided I would wear one on my wedding as a one-of sort of thing... and I ended up falling in love with the gown and now have to put it on once a year! It makes me feel so "girly" ;D

Mamacita: Thanks girl! That's so kind of you!!! *smile*

Minshap: ahhh mom!!! (((hug)))

I think I'm going to adopt this tradition (as long as I am in the same country as my dress on our anniversary)! I think it is a great idea!

Happy Anniversary and have fun in Venice!

Chilenguita: Yay! It really is a nice tradition... I love putting on that dress... in fact, I think I'm going to do just that after I hit the publish button on this comment.

And for the record, no matter where I go live in the world, that dress is coming with me even if I have to stuff the thing in my suitcase myself! LOL
