Well, since I've been working more than usual and haven't had a chance to get out and take some photos or stare off into the murkiness and come up with glorious words of enlightenment(!) I thought I'd post a couple photos of Mark and I that make me happy everytime I look at them. These were taken just over 3 years ago on our fourth anniversary.
My name is Colleen.
I love taking my time and finding beauty and humour in things before they happen - as in seeds and salamanders.
"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."

Colleen you have such a pretty smile!
You guys are adorable. I love how Mark is glaring at your eyebrow! I can't believe that's four years ago, we need some recent ones. go now and take pictures, i'll be waitin... go on...
i'm happy looking at these happy pics and oh, your smile is contagious! :-)
Awww...you two lovebirds. Those are really great pictures. I'm feelin' the love through my monitor.
Thanks, peeps! Ack. I thought I'd never say "peeps" and I just did. It just seemed cute today so I said it. So there. :P
Jenna, we usually take two pictures similar to this every year but not this year for some reason. We're very predictable, but I like it. I want to see these same shots but 50 years from now and be able to look back on our transformation together. :) xo. Maybe I'll take one today. Maybe. :)
You are an absolutely gorgeous couple. It's great to see you both. I love the idea of taking similar photos each year to watch your transformation.
I never use the word 'peeps' either! I did for the very first time a few weeks ago when I was in the car with my mother and she loved the expression, so somehow, that makes it ok for me to use it now.
Looking forward to some more recent ones!
xxxx
