Reverb 10: Wisdom

Prompt: Wisdom Wisdom. What was the wisest decision you made this year, and how did it play out? (Author: Susannah Conway)

I made some pretty wise decisions in 2010.  A couple are still waiting to play out, so I won't discuss those...but hopefully 2011 will show us those happy results in time. I'll get back to you.

In the mean time, I'm boring.  My number one wisest decision?  Marrying this kid:



Another wise decision? Making our own wedding bands.  They're simple but pretty damn meaningful to us.



Oh, and I'm not quite done.  I also was friggin' wise for choosing the best group of gals to surround me on my wedding day:

They come early and eat cupcakes with me. 
They've known me for 15 years.  FIFTEEN!
They laugh at my stupid humor. Graciously.

They're gorgeous. Gorgeous.
And they make tee shirts to make me feel special.
They also take amazing self photos. I need this talent.
They give me lots of love.
They make friends with each other, despite having met just 24 hours prior.
They make me GIGGLE!
They dance with me on an empty Greene Turtle floor.
And get DOWN with me!
They fit so nicely in restaurant booths!  Who needs extra tables pushed together?
They pay for me to see Jon Gosselin. Amazing.
They pose for cute pictures.
They buy and make me wear ridiculous things because they know, secretly, I love it.
They come from thousands of miles away and it's like things haven't changed in the many years since we first became friends.
Nearly bestest of all? They buy me underwear and don't laugh (too hard) at me when I think that it might be scratch-and-sniff underwear.
So really, my wisest decisions revolve around being lucky enough to have amazing people in my life.  Thanks husband and amazing friends, near and far!

  1. I love the fact that you guys made your own rings. I wish I had read your Weddingbee post on it before we ordered ours, we would totally have done it.
