Three Years Down the Road

July 8th, 2010 @ 4:39 pm by Mrs. Lemon

Yesterday marked anniversary #3 for the Lemon family. THREE YEARS! I can hardly believe the time has passed by so quickly! Trust me, if you think your wedding planning period flies by in a flash, you’ll be utterly astounded when you start flying through the years and actually need to start looking up the appropriate gifting source for each occasion. And since I didn’t have any leather on hand for Mr. Lemon yesterday, I made him a virtual gift… our own Google Search Story:

(P.S. you can make your own search story by going here!)

If you happened to be uber bored one day and chanced upon my the Lemon archives here at Weddingbee, all of that would make perfect sense to you… except for that last line.

You see, around the end of February a certain Baby Lemon literally popped into our lives and just threw our lives for a loop in the best of ways! Preparing for a baby is very similar to wedding planning… except unlike a wedding, the party doesn’t end. It keeps on going and going and going in truly the best of ways!

I mean, look at that smile? That’s like a BIG piece of wedding cake for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

Speaking of which… if you’re going to save the top of your wedding cake, I highly suggest you invest in one of those super-sucker vacuum air saver thingies and seal your cake up good. Why would I say such a thing? Because…

… this is our three year old cake as of last night. Yup, we ate “aged” cake to celebrate due to a series of misfortunes that led to us missing the chance to eat it on our 1st or 2nd anniversary. Heck, I was going to defrost it and eat it as “labor inducing cake” but my water broke early before I could try it out. Luckily we learned it didn’t induce any sort of stomach pains and that it smelled exactly like it did on July 7, 2007 (like sugar from heaven… trust me). And it tasted pretty darn wonderful as well!

I told you life will just fly right by… I swear I put that thing in our freezer just yesterday!

A special happy anniversary wish to all of my fellow marquee 07/07/07 brides out there… and a shout-out to anyone from “way back” in the Weddingbee days! Nice to see you all again!

When I first started reading Wedding Bee as a great procrastination during my last year of college, you were writing your recaps and I was so amazed by your gorgeous wedding! I’ve been reading WB off and on since then and your blog, etc. You’re my favorite bee ever! (Shh!)

Love it, Lemon! You were a bit “before my time” (on Weddingbee that is), but I do remember hearing of you and catching some bits and pieces. Welcome back & congratulations! As a vegetarian, I am a little nervous about that leather anniversary!
