The day has finally come. Spencer and I have been married 10 years. And it feels like it was just last week. Then I'm jolted back to reality by my 8 (almost 9) year old Eliza asking if she can play the Wii. And then Mairyn wanting to play, too. Grant running along throwing Legos and Jacqueline screaming, "Me too, me too!"
Who would have thought that 10 years from this day we would be in Cairo, Egypt sharing the adventure of our lives? I scoff a lot of people (when we go back to the states) that ooh and ahh about our "exotic" life.
"I never thought it would feel so . . . normal. School, clubs, errands and grocery shopping." I tell them.
But in some ways, it is a new adventure every week. Not necessarily one of my choosing, but still, not every day life in the States. And nonetheless, an adventure I get to share with my best friend and confidant, Spencer. Who knows what the next 10 years hold for us?

It will be exciting to find out! We out least know where we're going next. Have you heard anything yet?
I can't believe you have been married ten years!!!
10 years! Happy Anniversary!! It is funny, but the passage of time does not make me feel old, yet I think of the number of years I've been married to Brad and wonder how we collected so many already. And kids' birthdays plus thoughts of different homes over the years also makes the past years seem really amazing and full when I think of it.
Congrats guys, and best wishes for all the years to come :-)
Happy Anniversary! I loved looking at your pictures! So cute!
happy 10th anniversary Lydia! i wish i could have been there at your wedding. You look so pretty in your pictures!
How sweet! We are so happy for you two. We can't wait to have our own Lydia Spencer one of these days (the sooner the better!) It was really fun to see some wedding pictures too. Happy New Year!
Cogratulations! Ten years - I look like a baby in the family pic!
