It Takes Two

Heather and I often have and talk about those times when you suddenly realize that you love each other more than you did before. We cherish these rare kind of days.

Let me explain...
There are times in your relationship when you think I cannot possibly love her any more than I do now. You feel like your love is deeper and stronger than you ever thought it could be. Then after seemingly nothing has changed you find yourself in a moment where you clearly can see that your love is better than it was at the time of your last epiphany.

Well I had one of those moments just yesterday. We woke up at the crack of dawn (after a 1 am movie bender) to go to the Sealing of Heather's best friend Kajsa (to Monty). We spent the morning with them inside the Salt Lake Temple. Which is always a sweet experience because we were married there as well. Afterward we made our way to Tucano's for a Brazilian style luncheon featuring all you can eat meat. Another choice experience.

We then split up for a few hours. She went to work for a huge show. I went to the U of U to change and decide on a new major.

Later I joined her at work to help sell tickets at their biggest show if the year, Josh Turner. Her boss was kind enough to sell tickets for us once that show started so we could sit on the grass and enjoy the concert. As the night neared and the darkness filled the sky we sat together taking it all in. Josh came to a song where he asked each of us to raise our hands if we were "madly" in love. We both did so as he went into "I Wouldn't Be A Man." She was now leaning on my shoulder as my head rested on the top of hers. I was breathing in the scent of her over-priced salon shampoo and my heart began to race.

My mind quickly reviewed the significant events of the day, as only your mind can do, and I realized this was "one of those days" when the experience of the temple, and the atmosphere of the open air concert, and the realization that we will celebrate our two year wedding anniversary on Monday all culminate to make you see that you are more in love that you previously thought possible.

I love you Heather. You are the greatest ever. You're my favorite. There is no one like you. I love having you as a best friend, to be with everyday. It has been the greatest two years of my life. "We knew it from the start" but I have to say we didn't know it would be this good and we still don't know how great it will become.

Thanks for 2 spectacular years "B"!
