10th Anniversary Video

10/8/2016

 
Rob and I recently had our 10th anniversary.  We'd never actually made a wedding video, except for the "my humps" bit we posted on Youtube.  So, as a surprise for my hubs of 10 years, I secretly had the footage digitized and I cut this video together, including videos I've taken of our family over the past decade.  There was so much great footage from the wedding and beyond, it was really hard to pick.  And, I shed many tears for the people in the video who aren't with us anymore, as well as the babies that my kids will never be again.  Oy.  I'm a mom.  
​  

I debated whether to put it on my blog, since it's more personal than some other stuff... well I guess all my comedy's personal.  Never mind.  Here's the video:

Here's what I wrote on FB: 
Hey, Friends,
Are you tired of me celebrating my relationship with Rob Blatt on Facebook, (especially when there are much bigger issues in the world)?
Well it's our 10th anniversary so, please SIU for one more day. (Besides, I've been phone banking since the primary.)
10 Fantastic YEARS! How do we keep the magic alive? It's not always easy. Relationships take work, you know.
Here are a few lessons I've learned, that I'll share with anyone still reading:
-Use "I statements" (FYI, "I feel like I'm right and you're wrong" doesn't count)
-Validate each other's opinions, ideas, and feelings (no matter how ridiculous)
-Have great friends (on Facebook but also IRL) who root for you and maybe even spent a lot to attend your wedding and thus have a stake in how your relationship turns out.
-Wait 10 years to make a wedding video, then finally digitize the footage and neglect your spouse and children while making a belated video with them in it (I still don't know if this will help or hurt my marriage. Keep you posted.)
-Most Important: ALWAYS BE DANCING.
