My only Valentine’s Day surprise for Andy was heart-shaped balloons with cute messages printed on them that I placed around the house for him to see when he got home from work. Andy, on the other hand, had lots of surprises for me. He got me Wonder Woman Season 1 on DVD (I liked it …

Happy Valentine’s Day!
Well, this my second Valentine’s Day with Andy. The first turned out really nice. But, I remember all the pressure of not knowing whether I should get him anything, etc. since it was just 3 weeks into our relationship and we had only seen each other 3 times by then. (On a side note, I …
Have No Fear: Health Information Will Soon Be More Secure
I’m sure that many of you who know I’m a lawyer imagine that I spend most of my time in court. Not true at all. You see, there are two types of lawyers: (1) litigators (those who work on “cases” and who may occasionally go to court); and (2) transactional lawyers. I’m a transactional lawyer. …

7 Days a Week
I must say that seeing Andy 7 days a week is quite the treat. Before we were married, we saw each other for a few hours each Friday night and then on Saturdays and Sundays. Although Andy works in St. Cloud, he still beats me home by at least 30 minutes every night. I often …
Weekend at Home
Andy and I are looking forward to a relaxing weekend at home. Andy has been sick (but he is back at work now). We’re hoping he has some energy this weekend so we can get a few things done. We want to do a little shopping (as much as Andy can stand) and get a …
Missing a Hat?
Did any of you women leave a black and white hat with a little flower on it at our wedding? We’ll possibly take a picture of it and post it here so that we can get some help tracking down the owner. If it belongs to you, just leave us a comment or give us …
In Sickness and in Health
Our wedding on January 1st was beautiful. We’ll post pictures soon. Many thanks to those of you who braved the weather and celebrated our union with us. The honeymoon at Gunflint Lodge in northern Minnesota was nice and relaxing. We did some dogsledding and snowmobiling. I’m back at work today, but Andy is sick at …
Wedding Dress
I had my wedding dress fitted for the first time a couple weeks ago. Today is a big day because I have to jump in my dress and see if it still fits after being altered and after I have chowed down on so much cookie dough and so many Christmas cookies. If the dress …
Andy’s Bachelor Party
Andy had his Bachelor Party last Saturday night. He and his friends, his brother and my brother went to the Mall of America to celebrate. They ate at Famous Dave’s, drove in a Nascar simulator, chilled out at a piano bar and went to Ocean’s 12. So far, no incriminating or compromising photos of Andy …
Birthday and Baking
Saturday, December 11th was my mom’s birthday. I will not say how old she is because of my respect for my elders. But, I will give one hint – she is at least 2 times older than me and I am 28. On my mom’s birthday, we baked Christmas cookies. Poor Andy doesn’t like peanut …
