And for all of those computer nerds:

Happy 2nd Anniversary Logan!
Also, a big Happy Birthday to my Grandma, Elaine Starr! Thank you for sharing your birthday with us on our wedding day. 🙂 I love you!
wow! my husband and i did long distance for 1 year total and that was hard enough!
Kuddos to anyone that does long distance. I don’t know how army wives do it during the duration of their husband’s careers. Yay for keeping strong!
Happy Anniversary!
Thank you Evan!
Happy anniversary Caroline and Logan! Love the math. But what matters most in the relationship is the computation. Go coders!
My 27 year old niece has a saying… “so stinkin’ cute”… and that was the thought that came to mind when I read today’s post! Happy Anniversary to the digerati and his beautiful bride! P.S. I loved the math statistics too 🙂
I forgot to add… Happy belated birthday to Caroline! One of my favorite pictures of me and DB was taken in front of my 24th birthday jello cake!!! Yes, it was spiked…
You’re such a math nerd!!! Ü I would say that your ROI (return on investment) was well worth the sacrifices. Best wishes for continued, ever increasing, love and happiness for both of you!
