Two (Weddingbee)

Two years ago, we got all dressed up, threw a big ol’ party, and promised to love one another forever and ever.

They say the first year is the hardest, and looking back, I see why. In year one, there was a lot of “getting used to” to do, but after two years there’s a sense of familiarity. Dan Savage talks about a concept he calls “

the price of admission.” The price of admission in a relationship is all the little things that drive you nuts about your partner. Maybe your partner leaves his towels on the floor every day or maybe he is horrible at loading the dishwasher. Savage’s theory is that you have to put up with the annoying habits to get to all the good stuff. For me, year one was figuring out what the price of admission was, and year two has been about enjoying the good stuff. Two years in, I know what to expect, I feel settled, and I wouldn’t change a thing about our life (except for maybe a little more vacation time).

We’ve been up to a lot during our second year of marriage! Last October I ran my first marathon, and I’m currently training for my second one. In December, we celebrated Mr. T’s 30th birthday with dinner at Alinea and a 1980s video game themed party. We bought a new home and moved in during this epic Chicago winter. We played a lot of board games, drank a lot of beer, and watched a lot of Netflix.

And as always, we’ve been cheering Notre Dame on to victory. Sometimes, we do it in matching outfits.
