In Spite of Ourselves (Our One-Year Anniversary)

   My husband and I celebrated our one-year anniversary this weekend.  The day took on a life of its own.  I took a long, sweaty walk through the marsh in the morning, we went with the kids and bought me a new camera (wahoo!), saw Pirates of the Caribbean 4, went to dinner at a new Irish pub downtown and then walked by the river.  The day was spontaneous, chaotic, mostly unplanned, fun and exhausting...which is the way I would describe our first year of marriage...with three step-children and two active adults trying to make everyone happy and stay sane in the process.  I had high hopes for a video of us dancing...but the video turned out to be a reflection of the day...chaotic, a little awkward and lots of laughing.  We wrote our own lyrics to this song and our friends sang it at our wedding reception.  When I get motivated, I'll dig up the lyrics and post them here.
