I think love is in the details

Happy three year anniversary, Rob.
I've already blogged our story, so this post is a tribute to you.
25 little things I love about you
- That certain facial expression you have in which I can see exactly what you looked like at 5 years old.
- Your willingness to be converted to things you NEVER would have considered liking on your own, like country music, cats, and sleeping in.
- That thing you do in the shower that cracks me up.
- Your ability to do really hard math in your head. REALLY hard math. I love when we're meeting with our financial advisor and she's calculating interest or some such hard mathy thing and you do it in your head faster than she can on the calculator. That is so hot.
- Sherry chicken, your speciality.
- The fact that you have a better vocabulary than I do and I'm a damn English major.
- That your vocal impressions of Christina Aguilera and Brooks & Dunn are dead on.
- That you get just as pissed off at Bush as I do.
- The pride with which you present to me your latest mixed drink concoction.
- All the silly shit you do just to make me laugh.
- Your musical talents, especially guitar.
- The way you talk to and love on our cats.
- That you call me on my bullshit.
- That you watch tv with me. Even Desperate Housewives.
- How you take on so much responsibility and always have a million things going but are never stressed. That calms me.
- Your infinite patience.
- The dimmer switch you installed in our dining room just so we could have romantic dinners.
- That you thank me for little things like folding laundry or bringing in the mail.
- That you can explain the answer to any question I have or anything I don't get. I can only remember once when you said "I don't know" and even then you came up with a damn convincing theory.
- That you still grab my butt when you pass by.
- How whenever a new Reader's Digest comes in the mail (yes everyone, we subscribe - shut up), you read me all the worthy jokes during dinner.
- Please refer to tagline.
- Your mind - you are honestly the most intelligent person I've ever met.
- Your hands.
- That I can trust you completely.
Baby, even John Stamos wouldn't be a better match for me.

Awwwwwww.
Thanks for this, Kelly. It is very touching.
Now I feel bad that I didn't buy you anything for our anniversary! :)
Ha, you know I didn't get you anything either. :)
Gifts are overrated. Our nice dinner tonight will be enough.
the thing i love most about mr. kelly is that he swipes swag for mrs. kelly at nerd conferences.
the second thing i love most about mr. kelly is the new image i have of "that thing he does in the shower that cracks kelly up...". methinks i figured out what it is, and boy! it surely is cracking me up too! ;)
Oh, Kelly. That was so very sweet; and now I'm all tingly and happy and smiling and tearing up a little.
Happy Anniversary, you two. May your love for each other continue to grow, day after day, year after year.
God bless,
LadyBug
P.S. - I love that wedding photo. It made me smile.
Happy anniversary to the both of you!
I'm really digging the wedding photo AND the daily photo...which I think you should submit to a toothpaste company because those teeth sure are perty.
I like Rob too, because of "Remember me." That's hot. But not as hot as that thing he will do in the shower with/to you this evening. Google that.
Christina AND Brooks and Dunn?
Yeah, you are so going to video that right? AND SHARE!
I showed Shaun singing "Teenager in love" as Goofy.
How can I ever compete with that and still be gay? HMMmmmm???
Your cute quotient just went up even further...if that's even possible at this point.
*raises tea cup* here's to another fantastic year of laughter, understanding, love and happiness.
Yay! I can't believe it's been 3 years! Love and miss you both :)
Happy Anniversary! Little things really do mean so much. You guys are adorable.
You guys are soooo cute! Happy anniversary to you both.
This was wonderful. I love you both very much and am STILL honored that I was able to take part in your special day 3 years ago. (did you get my card yet?!)
Aaaaaaaaaaaw! So cute! Seriously. WAY cute. Love, love, LOVE! the wedding picture! Happy anniversary, you two.
Aaaaw.
I like boys- sometimes.
Oh. I hate when TGIM slaps my butt as I walk by. I do. REALLY. But-- in all honesty-- I'd probably be seriously sad if he stopped. Huh. I'm conflicted and ambiguous that way.
;)
Thanks, everyone. You guys are the best!
Cat, I complain every time he grabs/smacks my butt, to which he responds, "You love it." He's right. (I hate admitting that.)
Happy Anniversary! I really enjoyed your tribute to your man, as well as your "story", which I just read. I guess you are living proof that persistence pays off!
Happy Anniversary, you guys! I can't wait until we can get together... that list reminds me a lot of my sweetie -- everything from the butt grabbing to the patience to the math to the tv watching to the tagline to the music to the intelligence to just about everything. And the other day he said to me, you know when Kelly blogged about the whole fire-breathing over the pasta sauce thing? You do that. I didn't even act all insulted, I just said I KNOW, we could totally hang out with them!
my favorite joke from this month's reader's digest (yes, i subscribe too, and i'm proud of it!!!):
"This morning I read an article that said that watching TV can lead to attention deficit disorder. It also said that watching TV can lead to attention deficit disorder."
hahahaha!!!
That is the best anniversary post I've ever seen. And the picture? I love that picture. It's perfectly newlyweddy, and beyond.
Happy Anniversary!!
Lovely 25 things! He's a keeper, John Stamos or no John Stamos.
And how friggin great do your arms look in that picture? I am dying with envy over here.
Don't let Kelly fool all of you, today is their 10th anniversary.
Also, Kelly, I am so sorry we kept Rob so late on the on which the two of you sealed yourselves together in one body.
Rob - having said that, could you post a blog entry about that meeting?
Congratulations! Very sweet. Damn, he must love you if he's willing to listen to country music. That would be a definite deal breaker for me. LOL
Mr. Mojo - erm, do you mean the meeting at work today or the other meeting three years ago today (with the sealing of the bodies)? :) Either way you won't see me blogging about it. Kelly and I both vowed that we wouldn't blog about work in this space, and I certainly won't be posting about what happened after the other vows we made three years ago!
You two are way cute, but gifts are NOT overrated.
Aw, you fooled me, Rob. I clicked on you're name thinking, "Cool, there's a RLOG!" Damnitol.
