Hopefully she doesn't get too upset with me because, one: she is going to wonder, "Why don't you show me this kind of attention when I am home?", then two: I am planning on posting numerous pictures of her, and like many people, including myself, she may not appreciate that she didn't get a say on which ones appeared. And three: I have added a bunch of Tori Amos songs to our playlist... as well as maybe one... or two Staind songs :-). Come on! Cut me some slack! They enrich the list! :-) She may see it differently, though. I am prepared to live with the consequences. (Besides, I have been looking through the pictures and I think she looks great in them all!)
So here is my little tribute to my beautiful wife that I love and miss very much. She is classy, but not afraid to play in the park. She is intelligent, but not afraid to go cross-eyed and stick her tongue out at the camera. She knows when to be serious and when to laugh. And she is an AWESOME mother.
I find myself thinking back to when we first met... the Lingerie Department @ Dillards here in Idaho Falls (which is a story for another time), six years ago now. (I think six years... my math was never really good). Then our on-again/off-again relationship for a couple years here and in Boise...
And now here we are!
It has been fun...
...and will continue to be fun!!!

Hmm...
That wasn't enough pictures.
I need a few more.

((Halloween 2008 as vampires; my favorite. And no, I haven't read the Twilight books yet. I was a fan long before Edward and Bella. I have thought vampires were way rad ever since Brad Pitt smashed Christian Slater up against a ceiling - levitating!, mind you - with freaky eyes and teeth bared in Interview with a Vampire ... maybe even longer.))

In the words of Adi, "Love you! Miss you! Catch flip side!"
Now, Ash, if you try to do something foolish, like get even and post pictures of me, you know it will mean War! I will be pissed! Cuz I HATE pictures of me... except that one where I was in that muscular body suit. That was a good one. But NONE others. Lets just call it square and pinky-truce now.
Okay, now it is time for me to go. I just got done building Emi's new baby swing and I am anxious to try it out. If its as good as the advertising says, then I will be catching a few zzz's in no time.

Ahhh, what a sweet post! Caleb, you do have such a wonderful wife! And she is so lucky too, to have a husband who adores her so! You guys are such a cute couple! :) I loved this post!
Caleb, as always, you crack me up! That was a very sweet post and I thought you did a good job picking pictures! You didn't even put any embarassing ones--good husband. I hope you survive okay without your babes!
I love and miss you too! You are so sweet and wonderful to me, and I don't deserve it. I will see you soon!
Very loving post Caleb. Now I can see why you were "busily engaged" Saturday night. Ashley IS beautiful, Adi and Emi ARE beautiful, and you are MOST handsome. I was a little surprised by the photo with you in longer hair (it is all relative, but this was long for you!). You looked nice.
Great post. You are a great dad and husband and Ashley is a great wife and mother. You two are a good couple. I remember you're on again, off again relationship and talking to you on the phone one night when you lived in Boise and saying, "Caleb, I think she likes you. I do. You should call her again." Do you remember that? I also remember the day you proposed and you asked us, your sisters, to help you out, and the proposal was such a success! I hope you can survive while she is gone. When will you and your family be reunited?
Very cute post Caleb! Thanks for lending us your babes. We adore them as well and we enjoyed the visit. See you soon!
i can't get over how sweet this is!! i drug my husband over to the computer to look at it and read it with me! you are such a lucky girl!! but we all know who the "real" lucky person is ... and it sounds like he does too!! so glad you have someone that loves you so much.. every girl deserves that! i love that you are so happy, you have always been such a sweet girl
WA HA HA~~ I would tell you I was sorry I stole ALL your girls, but in all truth I'm not. It was great having someone to talk to on that drive and not to just have to repeat the words...Mitchel stop spitting...the whole trip! It was a great trip and lots of fun! he he, sorry, but I'm not sorry!
Hope you got a good nap in that new swing, bro...
Fun post, cute pics, and an entertaining read.
Aw, that was sweet. I remember hearing lots about Ashley way back when and thinking, "Wow, she must be pretty great!"
