December 28, 2010 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Minnesota Me, My Boys, Special Events 15 Comments


“Tomorrow is Mom & Dad’s anniversary!” I announced to the kids.

“You mean you were married right after Christmas?” Joe asked.

”And right before New Year’s Eve,” I answered happily, thinking him impressed by the festivity.

“That’s chaotic,” he replied.

*Note: The title of this post refers to the number of years that we’ve been married and not my son’s age, which is 13. Wouldn’t it be juicy gossip if it were the other way around?

    Happy Anniversary. We did the same thing. Althought we took the Feast of the Holy Innocents as our day. We are only 14 years this year. 🙂 It was and continues to be chaotic. But very joyful chaos.

    We'll be married sixteen years on New Years Day and we just attending a local couple's wedding on the 26th. For us – and them – the ceremony just happens to coincide with Christmas block leave. 🙂

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
