Another one bites the dust...
This month I added a charm chosen over a year ago by Heather. I'd link to her other blog(s), but she has so many, I never know which one is the current one. ;)
Here's a picture of the two completed bracelets. It's a little depressing to look at it (and wear it, for that matter) seeing how many charms are on it.The bracelet on top is our current one (with charms added by our friends), and the bottom bracelet is the 'old one', with charms that Josh and I chose WAAAAAAAAY back in 2006/2007.
I asked Josh to go and pick up a little something for this month's LIDiversary and I think he went into chocolate overload when he went into the store. You see, we have a brand new Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory in the mall by our house. In a word...dangerous.

More celebrations today...
...if you haven't heard the FANTASTIC news yet, head over to K1 and K2's blog and wish them congratulations! They're going to be parents very soon! I'm beyond thrilled that they're finally comfortable enough to let the (proverbial) cat out of the bag.
We wish them all the happiness and joy in the world as they embark on the wondeful journey of parenthood! *Mwah*

Triskaidekaphobia...
...does not reside in our house today, and no, this is not the name of the mouse that I found scampering through my backyard a couple nights ago *cringe*. Today marks our 13th wedding anniversary*! Holy crap, where does the time go?!We're heading out to an Italian restaurant for dinner and probably something evil for dessert...nummy!
*...and yes, this is how Josh proposed to me in December 1995. It kind of explains why we 'celebrate' each month's LIDiversary the way we do.
