Married with matching monogrammed bathrobes

Today is Steve-o's birthday.

See Steve-o with his pink purse below.

His name is not actually Steve-o, it's just Steve or Steven, but Virginia and I decided to Americanize it. We also decided that adding a "-o" to the end of anything definitely Americanizes it. Steve-o is from Manchester, England and we met him in a hostel in Chicago. He carried this pink purse with incredible irony, he might also have been the only British person that laughed at any of our jokes. For this we were indebted to him. Oh here's a close up on his bag that we all liked to call a purse:

Please note the two small pencils in the front pocket.

Upon hearing him detail the entire contents of this lovely little bag that he shared with his friend Ben - Virginia and I both decided that we'd marry him. (it's possible that the cutest part about this is that he shared the purse equally, it might have been what pushed us over the top.)

So, recently, it was decided by Virginia and myself, that the three of us should get married and live in a house together all wearing matching bathrobes. I imagine we'll spend plenty of time eating toast and giggling. Ahh. It will be a perfect union.

Happy Birthday Steve-o!
