Today is our 4th Anniversary. Tyler and I met because, well, when you live in a small town, you end up meeting. Six years later we were married. At the wedding reception we asked guests to write their birthdays and anniversaries on a calendar I’d created. The thought was to keep them a part of our marriage beyond the wedding.
The calendar was a fun, custom addition to our first year together, so I decided to make one every year. I missed making one last year, but made sure to get on the ball for a 2015 edition.
I use Shutterfly. It’s super simple to use. I’m sure there are other great calendar-creation services out there, but I just use what I know. (This isn’t an ad for Shutterfly…they’ve never heard of me…except when I order stuff from ’em).
I try to match the image to the month, but sometimes I go rogue and just use an image I like.
This year I also added some favorite Bible verses. Sometimes they fit a theme for the month, but some are just ones I love.
It’s just a fun way to highlight our work, display some of my novice photography and to create a keepsake to look back on.
Do you have any annual traditions? I’d love to hear about them!
God Bless You & American Agriculture,
Liz
