A One of a Kind Leather Anniversary

Today is our 3rd anniversary.  According to a quick google search, the traditional gift for a third anniversary should be made of leather.  Here is what we got each other:

Not only does it look beautiful hanging in our kitchen, but now we'll actually know what the guy at our local bike shop is talking about the next time our bikes are in for a tune-up.  Here's a detail shot:


It's hard to believe it was 3 years ago that we started our married lives together...this photo seems like just yesterday...

ahh yes, just look at that young citified love... (photo credit: Bassem).
