Today is Jason and my six year wedding anniversary, and we have so much to celebrate. I am, however, concurrently mourning his absence, as he had to travel to India for work today. I'm super bummed, but I know all will be well, and, when he returns, our family will only be stronger.
Our biggest reason to celebrate this year is obviously our beloved Ivy. Shown below helping Grandma with the camping dishes during our second camping trip this year.
Not shown here - me. I was sleeping inside the camper with a case of Hand, Foot and Mouth, which Ivy was so kind to share with me. Such a generous, sweet babe.
Today, before Jason headed out, he insisted that we continue our yearly trip to the State Fair. As some of you may know, the Wisconsin State Fair was included in our first date nine years ago. We got to the fair first thing in the morning when it opened (which is the best time to go), and Ivy had the opportunity to taste her first cream puff.
Ivy must have been exhausted by the end of the morning. She fell asleep in the car shortly after leaving the fair. She was so tired, she fell asleep with her hand still attached to the car seat visor with which she was playing.
I am truly grateful for everything I am blessed enough to have. I am the luckiest - in marriage, in motherhood, in family and friends, and in my health and well being.

great photos! I miss you both dearly. I'm going to try to get some sleep now after a very long day of traveling.
We are so glad you were able to celebrate your anniversary even though Jason had to leave you and Ivy for India the same day. It looks like Ivy enjoyed celebrating with the traditional cream puff! Her face says YUM!
