I wrote this after returning home from work the night I met Les for the first time.

"So I'm scrubbing dishes in the backroom at Panera Bread when I look up through the porthole, and what do I see? To put it bluntly the most defined, feminine calves my tiny little eyes have ever gazed upon. It was at that moment that I made the executive decision that the dishes were clean enough, and it was time to check on our new guests in the dining room." 

We play a lot and laugh at ourselves. It helps boost our confidence.

We love the show Dexter.  

We love Jesus.

Not in that order.

We are both pretty active.  I think you have to be in order to be a great photographer.  Sometimes you have to be able to climb a tree.  Les runs most nights, I am usually doing something that requires balance.  Slack-lining, longboarding, rock climbing, etc.

I don't care too much for beer, unless its Founders Double Chocolate Oatmeal Breakfast Stout, then I'm all about it. Les digs Blue Moon.

We are learning to love each other.  I think we are learning well.  We forgive well I believe -probably two of the best forgivers right here. I refuse to let Les sleep alone.  Thats not to say we wont go to bed ticked at each other every once in a while.  But when those nights come, and Les heads to the couch, I sleep on the living room floor beside her.  

Believe the best in people.  It makes a difference.

-Ben
