Dates

Today is one of those days that is just unusual, with it being 11-11-11 and all.  I don't' get caught up with numbers or dates.  However, it does get me to thinking of how many important dates in my life are shared with other memorable or celebrated dates.

Here's my list:

January 8th - Ryan and I had our first date.  It is also the birthday of my friend who was my maid of honor.

May 18th - Mae was born.  also the anniversary of when Mount St. Helen's blew (she was born on the      21st anniversary)

July 13th - our wedding anniversary.  Also the birthday of our friend who was Ryan's best man.

July 16th - Isabel was born.  BUT if she had been born just about two hours earlier then she'd share a birthday with her late great-grandmother.

November 5th - the dated that Ryan and I were officially engaged.  Also my sister in law's birthday.

December 23rd - Caleb was born.  He shares his birthday with his Papou (Greek for Grandpa) who celebrated his 50th that year.  Also the date of when my grandmother passed away (12      
                              years prior).

What a neat post idea! Numbers are fascinating, that's for sure!

Your Isabel shares a birthday with my niece and cousin and my birthday is the day after. :) July is a good month in my family.

I missed a post yesterday and I need to get writing one for today. I don't know what happened with yesterday, but time got away from me. Probably photoshop, lol.
