Two Years

Yesterday, my husband and I celebrated our second wedding anniversary and I think that all we know for sure about this marriage business is that two years feels a lot like one.

We hadn't been living together for a month yet when our first wedding anniversary rolled around. We celebrated in a big way (Red Bull Air Races! Hockey game!) but we missed out on many of the things you might expect from a couple that has been married for a year. Among those things, the year old wedding cake tradition. In all of our moves, our cake ended up with neither of us until well after our first anniversary. So yesterday we dutifully pulled it out of the freezer and dug in (after letting it warm up a little) to our now two year old wedding cake, which was surprisingly delicious!

Of course, I'm wondering if we'll always feel a year behind or maybe we'll just always feel like we've been married for half of the actual length of our marriage? Probably time will catch up with us at some point but for now it's kind of cool to feel like we've had two first wedding anniversaries.
