Happy Anniversary

Today Matt & I are celebrating 6 years of wedded bliss! I can not believe how quickly the years have flown by. The other night we were talking about relationships and what makes them work. We decided that while we may not like the same movies or read the same books we do agree on the big stuff. You know...that ice cream should never be fat free, Asian Sesame Ginger Salad dressing is the only way to go, & that a king size bed is the key to any good marriage.

Last night at dinner we were reflecting over the past 6 years. The trips we've taken, the ways we've celebrated our anniversary and what we want the next 6 years to look like. We are so grateful for all the ways that the Lord has blessed us and can't wait for what's next. This is a picture from the night we got engaged. We look so young! We were so young! Thank goodness we do not still have those couches!

P.S. Happy Anniversary to all the other July Brides. I can think of at least 9 of you off the top of my head! : )

Two!

On August 2nd the Buddy Boy turned 2! He was and still is so incredibly proud of himself over this achievement. Caiden is the most perfect combination of all boy and sweet and snuggly toddler that there ever could be! He loves trucks and balls, throws caution to the wind, and has a stubborn streak that isn't going anywhere. He adores his daddy more than I can explain, loves to get kisses from mommy and wants to do everything his big sister does. We never knew how much we needed this little boy until he arrived and we are so humbled and blessed because we were chosen to be his mommy and daddy. How can we thank God enough for you in return for all the joy we have in the presence of our God because of you? 1 Thessalonians 3:9

10 years

Today Matt & I are celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary! Part of me can hardly believe that it's already been 10 years. I can still remember so many details of that time in our lives. The joy and excitement of the wedding and anticipation for the future. And another part of me knows that 10 years is not that long at all. We've only just begun! We did not get any digital images from our wedding photographer (it was a different time back in 2003) but a friend took these and gave them to me. One of my favorite parts of our ceremony was that we signed a covenant. Matt & I signed first and then both of our family's came up and signed. It was a really special part of our ceremony. I am so thankful for these past 10 years with my best friend! When Matt & I met at a mutual friend's house 12 years ago I never could have imagined all that God had planned. But through it all - the victories and...

Thanksgiving 2012

I know, it's pathetic. I'm blogging about Thanksgiving 2012 at the end of February 2013. But there were too many fun memories to not give it a blog post. We headed to Owensboro this year for Thanksgiving. It was Caiden's first airplane ride and visit to Kentucky. He did great on both the flights. Isn't it so sad that his mother made him ride in a hot pink stroller. Adelyn and Caroline had a lot of fun playing together. They had the most fun teasing Uncle Chris by hiding in his bed and giggling until he came to find them. Since these pictures were taken Caroline has become a big sister. Do you think she was worried that her baby brother would be as silly as Adelyn's? Speaking of our baby brother, he was quite the early riser on this trip. On Thanksgiving morning he woke up at 4 am, took a scenic drive around Owensboro, wished everyone in the drive thru at Dunkin' Donuts a "Happy Thanksgiving" an...
