to have and to hold...

we had the privilage of attending a friend's wedding this weekend. it was very beautiful and awesome to see some old friends. i almost forgot how much work gets put into a single day. sometimes i can't help but to think that we shouldn't have put so much into our wedding, or invited so many people. if i could do it all over again i would just do a destination wedding and just have close friends and family present.

that night we went over to a friend's house and had crabs. it was amazing! totally worth me scratching all night.

that night a bunch of married couples sat around full from crabs playing a game where we ask each other penetrating questions. well, it wasn't that bad...there was nothing we wouldn't have answered. one of the questions was "since marriage, has there been anything about him/her that surprised you that you didn't know about him/her before marriage?" or "what's the most romantic thing he/she has done for you?" and "what is the one thing you are proud of still doing even after a baby?"

i'm not too sure how i would answer some of those questions. i don't think there's anything about A that surprised me after we got married. for him, he was surprised about my passion for counseling others. i think i was surprised about that too...i don't think i saw it in myself before we got married. i just knew that i really enjoyed talking to people, especially when they are in need. haha..as for most romantic thing...we just won't go there because we don't have any..we should work on this part a little more. and, the one thing we are proud of doing even after a baby is going out for fine dining and having dinner parties at our house.

after being together for so long..things just don't stick out as much anymore, and we just don't have the energy to be creative. i sometimes wonder if that should be something that we should be working on.
