Just as I love Christmas so it’s extra fitting that our wedding anniversary is Christmas Eve, our best friend Jon loves America. I mean, I love America, too, but Jon is 30 and lights up when he talks about presidents. He even has a favorite president. I think it’s my most favorite thing about him. So it’s extra fitting that Lorie and Jon’s anniversary just happens to be the Fourth of July. :)

I can’t believe that two years ago today, our best friends Lorie and Jon were getting married under an Acacia Tree in Tanzania, Africa. This week they’re celebrating their anniversary by attending a friend’s wedding in Spain, and Jon plans on participating in the Running of the Bulls in Pamploma. Real bulls, people. They constantly inspire us to have more adventures!
