Recently, my husband Steve and I celebrated our five-year anniversary. We had a grand ol' time out at a Brazillian restaurant, paying the babysitter to keep an eye on little Ruthie. Definitely liberating, and definitely fun.

Of course, date nights out on the town aren't the only way we have fun; my husband is quite the big kid himself, as evidenced by these portraits. I had found a set of finger puppets at Ikea that I couldn't resist, and brought them home to Ruthie, only to have Steve bogart them and ask me to take his portrait.

Aren't these finger puppets adorable? Oh, and Steve is too. Ah yes, it's been five interesting and wonderful years so far, with many more ahead!
