10 Years and going strong!

Happy Anniversary to my amazing husband of 10 years!!! I can't believe it! I have no idea where in the world the time has gone.  We have laughed, cried, learned, loved, and shared so much over the years.  I'm seriously in awe of all the wonderful things we've experienced together!!!  Thank you for all you are and have been to me and our family.  I love you more than words can say!!!  Here's to a million more and a little trip down memory lane!!

Our lives changed forever when Jackson was born! We were no longer the center of the world.  We had this amazing and perfect baby that God blessed us with and didn't think life could get any better!

I am pregnant with logan in the picture below and we had no idea how wonderful life would become with two boys!!

Wow! What a difference 10 years makes!! It is truly amazing how much we have changed, grown, learned, moved, and loved in these 10 years of marriage.  I am grateful for the opportunity to spend the rest of my life with such an amazing person.  God has mapped out a story and we are seeking Him always to stay on His path for our lives.  It is going to have ups and downs (and already has) but we are blessed beyond measure and I look forward to many more happy anniversaries!!(and at least one more baby!) I love you!

Happy Anniversary!!

September 8, 2001 I walked down the aisle and married the man of my dreams. He was the one I had been waiting for. I had always prayed that I wouldn't have to be bothered with dating and breaking up and searching for the special guy. And much to my dismay, God heard my prayers and answered them. I made it through high school, college, nursing school, and graduated into the workforce before ever going on that feared first date. (minus my first crush in 9th and 10th grade). My family feared that I had spent too many lonely days in my 24 years of life and worried that I wouldn't find the man for me SOON! Having stood as the MAID of honor at both my sisters weddings, it was my turn, and when it finally came, it was awesome! I get little butterflies in my stomach just thinking about the day our paths crossed, the moment we saw each other for the first time and didn't even know what was in our future. Brushing past each other in an elevator, him coming to the ICU unit where I worked, hoping for a job there too.


The past 8 years have been the most amazingly wonderful and also hard work, but so well worth it. Thank you, baby, for making me the wife and mother I had always dreamed of. Thank you for your strength, security, and love that keeps this family together. You are one in a million ( in so many ways) and I am so blessed that God chose you to be MINE! Happy Anniversary and I'm looking forward to 100 more! I love you with all my heart and look forward to whatever God has planned for us in the future.
