Today Steve celebrates half a century plus half a decade plus one.
For those of you who are not good at math—like me—he turns fifty-six.

Archives For Meagan
This Saturday is the prom at Sarah’s High School. She hadn’t planned to attend and I really wasn’t all that gung-ho about her going since I’ve heard more than a few wild stories from prom-goers over the years.
The Chair in its place, getting ready for the 2012 Smith Family Photo.
Welcome To A Special Edition of Smithellaneous As We Celebrate The
One Year Anniversary of Nathan and Meagan Smith
We’ll get things started with a word from the happy couple themselves. I asked them to write down two things that they love most about their spouse after being married for a year. Since they’re currently on a weekend anniversary getaway, I didn’t want their assignment to be too time-consuming; I told them just a couple of sentences would be fine.
I know it’s hard to believe, but Monday will mark Nathan and Meagan’s first wedding anniversary. Since so many wonderful readers avidly followed along with their story throughout their engagement and wedding, I want to invite you to the anniversary celebration.
You may remember the Wedding Wednesday series I did for a few months following their wedding, highlighting various photos and stories. Well, I’ll be bringing that back on Monday except that it will be called . . . well . . . Wedding Monday instead. (For obvious reasons.)
I’ll be featuring some of my absolute favorite photos of them and you will also hear from Nathan and Meagan themselves as each of them shares the two top things they love the most about each other after their first year of marriage.
Don’t miss this special time at Smithellaneous!
As most of you have probably noticed by now, I have a contract with an ad network called BlogHer whose ads appear in the right column. I get a little income each month from running the ads and then every week or two, one of my posts is featured on some of the other blogs in the network which provides a little extra blogging exposure.
See if you recognize anyone on this page. (Tip: Scroll about halfway down.)

Yep! Meagan just landed a teaching position at an excellent Christian Academy in Winter Haven and will be starting on March 19.
Meagan–we’re so proud of you! Those students of yours don’t know what a blessing they’re in for.
Our mystery guests have arrived from Florida!
Rev. Frank and Sheri Hawley are not only our dear friends but also the parents of our wonderful daughter-in- law, Meagan. (Unfortunately, their arrival at the Norfolk airport did not coincide with the arrival of one of their two suitcases carrying most of their clothes and toiletries. Yikes. )
Since we will be leaving in a few moments for a marriage retreat that they are speaking at, I am pulling out a favorite post from the archives to share today. It’s especially fun to read this in light of the fact that the particular boyfriend and girlfriend mentioned in this story really did get married!

Last week’s edition of Wedding Wednesday had us at Jennettes Pier which is where we’ll pick up again this week.
After we had meandered around in the December chill for about a half hour (snapping pictures all the while), we finally decided it was time to call it a day.
As Nathan and Meagan headed back toward the gift shop leading out to the parking lot, I ran along behind them like the rabid mamarazzi that I am.
Welcome to this week’s edition of Wedding Wednesday!
The next stop on our Wedding Photography Tour Agenda took us to Jeanette’s Pier in Nags Head, which is a short ten minute drive from our house.
After leaving the restaurant in downtown Manteo where we took the wedding shots I posted last Wednesday, we drove just a couple blocks and got out near the water. It was such a beautifully blue day, a perfect setting for a certain bride and her certain husband.
I must say it’s a good thing that the Public Display of Affection Police were not afoot because there was plenty of affection being publicly displayed!
Note: Before we get started, I want to mention that I am a featured guest poster today on a wonderful blog called Gray Hair and Acne. Be sure to stop by.
And now on to this week’s Wedding Wednesday . . .
One of the spots that Meagan and Nathan definitely wanted to include in our photo shoot was the bridge that crosses the bay in downtown Manteo. Continue Reading…
