Corey and I recently celebrated our 13th anniversary. Corey told me he had a plan and it turns out it was a good one. We dropped Sophia off at a friends and during the middle of the day, while the boys were at school, we went on a bike ride. We biked from our home the short distance to the green belt. Then we took our time riding along the green belt. After about an hour we went to out to lunch to Pachangas a little Mexican restaurant in downtown Idaho Falls. After lunch we took our time making our way back around the green belt and then home again. I forgot that we had a hill to climb to get back to our neighbourhood. I’m sure I was a sight fighting with all my might to make it up the hill without stopping. We did it though and we have the sore bums to prove it. I can’t believe it’s been 13 years but it is also hard to believe that it’s been 17 years since our first date. Corey said something sweet the other day. He said “You were my girlfriend way before you ever knew it.” I sure do love that man of mine.
