I saw some photos of my sister’s bridal dress fitting. She looks stunning in her gown! Obviously, I’d love to post the photos here but what if Robert sees them? Nope, bad idea.
What a blessing to see your little sister getting ready to marry a wonderful man…and finally stop living in sin! ;-)
Seriously, Meike, you’re such a beautiful bride! I cannot wait for your wedding, Wurmfuss!
Love always,

Check this out - another live video blog about Dogster. And, of course, Griffin got a couple of close ups. Watch him eat carrots or play with his lady friend Moxie:

Step by step
Ooh baby
Gonna get to you girl…remember?
New Kids on the Block are back together. After 14 years, they are back with new songs, a tour, new tattoos, and a bit more facial hair. I bet I still have their dance routines down!
This is not just another ice cream flavor. This is heavenly…
The first bite is a creamy mixture of fruity pomegranate, sweet cranberries and grapes. Then, you’ll taste the melting chunks of intense dark chocolate. And you wish that one scoop of ice cream would last forever…
What a creation!
“She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue . . . her children arise and call her blessed.” – Proverbs 31:25-26, 28

A few days after our first wedding anniversary, Paul and I sat down to read the wishes our guests wrote for us on our wedding day. Upon arrival at our wedding, we asked all of you to write a wish for our first anniversary on a little card and put it into a big glass jar.
It was so much fun to read all your cards!
Here is the Best Of:
“Planned Pregnancy.”
“I wish for you two - to share the remote! Oh, and an everlasting pilot light so you’ll always be able to spark it!”
“May you never lose the desire to please each other!”
“Today, may your love and commitment be 12 months stronger! (With lots of money in the bank!) Happy Anniversary!”
“More love, more understanding.”
“Hope you’re well. Good choice you guys!”
“My wish for you is that both of you fall in love each morning that you are together. And that God blesses you always.”
“Ich wuensche Euch Glueck, Zufriedenheit, Harmonie und viele, viele gemeinsame Jahre, viele Kinder, Gesundheit und viel Geld.” (”I wish you joy and happiness, harmony and many, many years together, many children and a lot of money.”)
“Ihr sollt niemals ueber die Sorgen des Alltags vergessen, dass Ihr das grosse Glueck gefunden habt…Euch.” (”May you never forget, over the worries of the days, that you’ve found happiness…within each other.”)
Could the author of the following note, please come forward and reveal his/her identity? “I wish for you great sex for the rest of your lives.”
Thank you all for your wishes. The wishes for this past year would not have come true without the love and support from all of you! (And sorry, we’re not pregnant yet!)
Did you know that the traditional first anniversary gift is paper? Yes, paper. So what came first to my mind was - a love letter. Well, you live and breath the internet so my love letter comes in blog-style. (Does that count?)
They say the first year of marriage is often considered the year of adjustment. So true, huh? :-)
When we moved into our apartment on 4th Ave as Husband and Wife last year, we had a vague idea of what married life would be like. But let’s be real, no pre-marriage counseling, stories and helpful advice from parents, pastors and friends, no books, no prayers really prepared us for the journey we embarked on a year from today.
But, no matter what the world threw at us (or what I threw at you), you would look up, your eyes tranquil, secure and shining with warm, undemanding affection and trust. You would put your arms around me, pray with me and just be your beautiful self by reassuring me of your love for me.
You were first a stranger at a bar, then a friend, and now my lover and husband. You saw through my troubled heart and soul, you believed in me. And you, I trust with all my heart to be the one who I want to grow old (and wise) with.
Paul, you are the most amazing person I’ve ever met. You are wise, enthusiastic, you are a dreamer, a believer and a doer. You have an idea and you pursue it until it is done. I love that about you. You are a man of conviction. You stand up for your beliefs. You value commitment. All these wonderful things - and so many more - about you, were the reason why I said “I Do” on the beach in Monterey on May 5th, 2007.
As we celebrate this special 1st wedding anniversary, reflecting on both the delicate and challenging aspects of our marriage and of our love for one another, I want to let you know how much I love you. Your love means the world to me. Your commitment to be my husband is God’s greatest gift for me.
We decided to celebrate our first year of marriage in New York City this past weekend. It was so perfect to get away from work and the rest of the world and just get that quality one-on-one time. It is so important with the hustle and bustle of the world to find time to spend with that special someone in your life. I do appreciate it that you continue to push me to make quality time more of a priority in our hectic lives. So besides declaring my love for you, this is my promise to you for the years to come - to get better at just “having a good time together and relax”.
Please know that when you read this letter-blog in the fifth, tenth or thirtieth year of our marriage, I will love you then as I love you today when our marriage is (only) a full year old.
Love always,
Wiebke
P.S.: By the way, if ‘Paper’ as a traditional gift for the 1st anniversary, you were the perfect husband when you surprised me with tickets (paper!) to the K.T Tunstall show at The Warfield. Hmm. :-)
