DH can, at times, be the stereotypical guy-- hates chick flicks, avoids malls at all costs, and only buys flowers when he's done something wrong. So when it came to planning our wedding I never imagined he'd be so involved in every aspect of the process. I thought he was going to be the typical Fiancé and just nod his way through the process, oh was I WRONG!
From the photographer-- three quit after not sharing his vision-- to the cake--who would have thought a guy from New Mexico could tell the difference between butter cream and fondant-- to the rehearsal dinner --of course, he needed steak. DH not only had a vote on which vendor I chose, but he routinely took the lead and provided recommendations and feedback--constructive and plain criticism--to all of our vendors.

So it shouldn't have been a surprise that DH would want to add his two cents when I proposed hanging a couple of our favorite photos. During my six month sabbatical overseas, DH found a new love, a love of photography. When I asked him to pick his favorite photos he easily provided his top 64! What I thought was going to be a simple "hammer nail in wall" project was delayed by a few days of life or death photo selection of six photos to hang over our couch!
Lesson learned? I need to pad our projected renovation timeline.

ReplyDeleteThanks April. He's definitely accumulating lots of toys from all the runs we make to Home Depot.
