One-Ten

Know what yesterday was? Our one hundred and tenth monthiversary! 

It was a short night of sleep for both of us. Lexi, who has been a very good sleeper every night so far, decided she wanted to stay up late and get up early. I took the night shift. Ryan took the morning. 

When I got up around 8, I fully expected to find Ryan out shoveling, but he wasn't, largely because the snow hadn't actually started yet. Good reason, right? 

So we worked inside for much of the day. Everything everywhere around here had been canceled, because of the 1800 inches of snow that was supposed to start the night before! So we didn't have any meetings or anything like that. We'd done all the prep work for the snow, so we enjoyed a (very rare) easy sort of day!

I made chicken bacon ranch quesadillas for lunch, but I was so hungry that I scarfed them down before photographing them. 

By afternoon, the snow had started just a bit. But not too much!

Miss Lexi kept us entertained while we worked:

I had grand visions of taking an adorable selfie while we worked on snow removal today, but we never got to that point. (By the time the snow kicked up in accumulation, the wind had also kicked up, so shoveling was pointless. It would be undone by morning.) So we took this random picture while standing on opposite sides of the puppy room divider, sometime right after dinner. And this perfectly captures our day:

We closed the day by dreaming for our future while portioning out fruit packs for smoothies. Do we know how to celebrate or WHAT!!?!?!

It may not have been our most glamorous monthiversary, but we were able to spend it together, and for that, I am so very grateful. 2022 has already brought a fair amount of challenges, and I am SO thankful to have Ryan beside me. He is the best teammate, the best encourager, the best troubleshooter, the best dreamer. 

Monthiversary one-ten in the books! :)
