I like traditions. I think. Sometimes, at least. Quaint traditions. Not inflexible traditions that attempt to define who we are, what we are allowed to do or like, but traditions that add meaning or history. We have a few family ones: anniversary couple selfies, homemade advent calendars, we visit the Enchanted Forest, take kids' birthday photos by the blackboard with current likes, height and weight, and eat homemade cinnamon scrolls on Christmas morning.
We are fast approaching March 5th. 5 years already! The 5th Wedding Anniversary traditional present is wood. Wood! I spent hours trawling shops for a wooden something that wasn't a pen or bowl or something equally trite. I was unsuccessful. So I made something.
We got married on Bethells Beach on 5/3/10 (KBZ!).
