because.

The conversation went something like this,

'jenn why dont we use that pantry for all our food and then we can put pots and the other cooking utensils in the cupboards above the sink' ... 'uhhmm no I dont think that that will work matt'...'why? that makes the most sense, all of our food can be in one spot instead of scattered in different cupboards' ... 'it wont work, just because...'

'because why?'

'becauuuuseeeeee I obviously need to put all my shoes in that pantry... look at the shelves Matt - pppppperrrrrfeecccct size to store annnnd display all of my heels. And then in the bottom, I can store all of my boots!?!?!?!?!'

and then I got an eye roll and tons of mutterings along the lines of 'whattt didd i get myself intooo'

But that pantry holds my babies proud and we got used to opening a few cupboards to find the pasta sauce...

Matt,

This is why I love you so much ... you think my ideas are crazy, but you go with them. You put up with my obsession with shoes and clothes, and picture frames and expensive purses. You get why we haddd to build a dolly parton princess playhouse. You don't think its insane to wait an hour outside a store to be the first in line to go inside for those great deals and you understand 'boy jobs'. I love you so much and I just wanted to thank you for supporting me in all my decisions (kitchen pantry shoe closets and all) But most of all I wanted to thank you for being my biggest fan and doing whatever you can to help make my dreams come true.

Here is a 'test' shot from the photobooth Matt shot for me at our last wedding...
