Happy 13-month anniversary to us!Since we were busy celebrating our first anniversary on the one-year mark, I decided to do an anniversary post on the one-year, one-month mark instead. This past year went by incredibly fast, but we filled it full of fond memories and good time spent having fun and getting accustomed to sharing life together. There are obviously many things we have in common, but it's the ones that make us unique that are discovered in that first year, right? I did a little reflection and came up with some funny differences I've noticed...
So far, our differences balance each other out quite well! It's obvious that our pasts are a big part of who we are, but it's also becoming apparent that we are rubbing off on each other a little...who knows what the next year will bring?
Thank you all for your love and support of our marriage - it's the cherry on top :)
1. He folds his clothes like he's always had his own closet.
She folds her clothes like she's shared her closet with 3 other girls.
2. He thinks about dinner as meat and two side dishes.
She thinks about dinner as a main DISH (which could include 3 food groups), and some hope for dessert later.
3. He is careful to get excited about anything until it is certain to happen or is happening.
If there's some small chance she can go to Disney World in the next 3 years, she gets very excited, tells everyone, and looks it up online.
4. He puts his shoes on when he gets dressed and keeps them on all day and evening.
She slips hers on as she leaves the house, takes them off as often as possible throughout the day, and leaves them at the door when she returns home.
5. He dislikes putting laundry away.
She dislikes sorting laundry to wash.
6. He will research the life out of something, and even visit the store multiple times before purchasing.
She wants to come home with something if she's going to be stuck shopping for very long, even if it's not quite perfect.

Funny comments. You'll find more in the years to come! Who knows some of them may switch.
From your sister Roo (who's been married for more than a decade)
Happy Anniversary!! You will find that you will add to that list each year you are married. I am still discovering different things about Ryan and we have been married for 9 years!! I am so glad you are a part of the family!
Be careful "rubbing off on each other" too much, you may end up with a baby that has traits from both of you :). It would also make you discover more things about not only each other, but yourselves :).

I love you guys! Congrats on the first year and a month.
