It only happens every 4 years.
Happy Leap Day! February 29th only happens every 4 years, which got me thinking about what was happening 4 years ago. In February 2004, Brad proposed while we were on a snowboarding trip near Lake Louise in Canada (for anyone interested, Brad didn’t propose on Valentine’s day – it was February 6th). So the following 6 months was all about planning the wedding. We were married in October of 2004 in Kauai, Hawaii. I dug up these photographs which brought back many memories.
After the wedding, in November, we honeymooned in Bora Bora, which was really fun. We stayed at the Bora Bora Lagoon Resort and Spa in a bungalow over the water. It was totally relaxing and the weather was absolutely gorgeous. It rained a few days, but it didn’t stop us from exploring and scuba diving.
We spent December at home in LA.
This leap year, I’ve been following the presidential elections closely and I’ve been studying a lot about American history. I am planning on becoming a citizen and I will be adding Brad’s surname to my name. Later on this year, Beijing is hosting the summer Olympics which really pleases me. I look forward to all the swimming and water events. We’ve also planned a trip to visit Greece and a camping trip in Bend with Brad’s family. Very exciting times!
