(Engagement Photo 2004)A few months after we were married, we bought our Altima. At the dealership, the salesman suggested red because it was already on the lot. I thought back to the conversations Mark and I had about cars and remembered Mark saying that he liked red cars and so I said that I liked red. Mark was happy with the choice and so we drove the car home.
Not long after, Grandpa bought an Altima, except his was a charcoal gray.
"I love that color!" I said.
"Me too."
"How did we end up with red?"
"I thought you wanted it."
Now, occasionally we have to ask each other, "This isn't another red car, is it?" Our communication has improved but our sentiment remains the same. Happy 6th Anniversary, Mark.
